1. Clean your gun or other weapon.
2. Blow dry your hair.
3. Pluck nose or ear hairs (or arch eyebrows).
4. Talk about how much this or that cost especially your vehicle.
5. Refer to your mother as your best friend.
6. Polish high school trophies (which you still have displayed).
7. Rap
8. Check out our Mother, Sister, roommate, assistant, or babysitter.
9. Tip less than 20% or forget to tip altogether.
10. Question our footwear.
11. Forget your wallet.
12. Forget to carry cash.
13. Celebrity impressions.
14. Impressions of us.
15. Wii, Gameboy, Xbox, or any other game such as this unless we specifically ask to play.
16. Flirt with the waitress or staff.
17. Pay more attention to your pet than us.
18. Talk business on the cell phone unless it is an emergency.
19. Talk to anyone on the cell phone unless it is an emergency.
20. Scratch it, flip it, flop it, swing it around, tug on it, adjust it, or do anything to remind us that its just a goofy appendage and not a mystical source of pleasure and satisfaction. ;p
21. Scream -- at the dog, at the guy who just stole your parking spot, the television or anyone else; because when we hear your voice , we have a good idea of what we're in for.
22. Talk about former girlfriends, wives, exploits, EVER.
23. Use the words bitch, slut, tramp, or whore unless referring to another man.
24. Don't leave dirty clothes, especially dirty underwear where we can see it when we visit your home.
25. Clean your teeth with a toothpick at the dinner table anywhere.
26. Stick anything in our butts, unless previous discussions have occurred.
27. Cut your toenails.
28. Forget to put toilet tissue in the bathroom.
29. Forget to change bed linens.
30. Tell us you're going to kiss us; Just get on with it! ;)

*Disclaimer*
Not male bashing.  This list was made in good fun and alot with tongue in cheek.  Love doing that for some reason.

I hope all single men read it - the married ones - well, they are either already well-trained or don't give a rat's arse ...that's what I think of this pretty detailed list which I have to say I agree with - at least with most of these things- did you come up with these Miz Esther? How's your love life? lol. Salud.

7. Pay more attention to your pet than us.
Now if a guy likes animals, then that's a plus - and maybe he's giving you a big big hint - like maybe he thinks you're very boring...but he's too much of a Gentleman to come out and directly say so - hummm...Ok well, I'm sure some men will respond. Salud.

I think that men should read this and consider it as a guideline - you forgot to mention the "c" word... Yeah, I know the Monologues encouraged us to embrace and love it, but REALLY...

27. Cut your toenails.http://www.gather.com/publish.jsp

Uh if someone wants to cut my toenails - honey go right on ahead and start the chainsaw - I certainly don't mind that or combing my hair or any of those niceties...Salud.

Michelle - As you can see I was finally able to publish but using firefox instead of internet explorer. The strange thing is that I was able to publish photos this morning using IE but support contacted me on at least part of the problems.

I tried going to comment on your article of last night and had a great comment but i couldn't get a cursor to let me comment and tried and tried until 1:30 then I was up at 4:30 and still couldn't so I will go after this tonight. Promise! ;)

Mariana - I came up with 75% of these, the others were thrown in for good measure.

As for my love life, I have been with the same man now for 7 years and 2 months. Things aren't always perfect but wonder whether I really want to start over and try to train another one...lol!

Doyle - You ALWAYS look so well groomed to me! And I just know how difficult it must be to keep white hair clean. You're doing a good job hon, don't you worry unless your toenails get too long. Those tend to scratch your womans smooth, pretty legs.

Thanks for liking the list, but was hoping some of you ladies out there could come up with some more.

Mariana - I go for manicures/pedicures and massages every two weeks but if I need a pedicure in between Rick will give me one. He's really gotten good at it as his ex used to be a nail technician and she taught him before he met me. He also puts facial masks on me, gives me back massages, makes me breakfast in bed at least once per week, and alot of nice things but he is very jealous so the good works out the bad. lol!

Landen, Landen, Landen - Which gun?? Silly man! The type that one uses to kill someone dead like in not breathing dead. Not the gun that just makes one feel as if they are dead sometimes, lol!

Good to hear you don't own a blowdryer; do you have hair on your head? ;p

Landen - Nothing worse than someone who insists on doing it with out discussing it first and one who has no knowledge of how to go about doing it.

YES, there still are some boneheads that try to do it and don't know how. There ought to be a class offered on how to do it without causing pain which is the right way.

Kathy - I agree with the toilet paper issue being a man thing but if Rick forgets to put some on and I am in there and no matter where he is in this house I will call his name to bring me some until he does so. Otherwise I have to use my own resources when home alone as I still haven't taught my kitty cats how to get some out of the cabinet and bring one to me. lol!

No word from you know who yet. Maybe tomorrow. I will let you know first thing.

Undeniable - I have a few gay friends and they do more with their hair sometimes than I ever do. That goes for arching their eyebrows and plucking hair from their nose and ears as well. As for no.23, some of the fights I have seen my friends and their lovers in, I've heard some of these names along with some that I haven't yet added to my vocabulary. Of course there is always the exception to the rule. And I know that none of these could ever pertain to you or any other of my fabulous friends here on Gather.

Jillian - Thats hottt to you?? By golly woman, I guess I've seen to much of CSI and Forensic Files, and America's Most Wanted, and Cops, and any other murder show on tv. I worry about the darn things going off. We have guns in my home and always have since I was a child but my Dad never cleaned them with us around, ever. I think that it is a good idea as one would never want a gun, rifle, shotgun or whatever to go off accidentally or accidentally on purpose if you catch my drift. Stranger things have happened.

Mike - I guess you get a pass on that cleaning of your gun when and if you pleases. Since you feel so strongly about it I wouldn't want to stop you so go on right ahead. Do you need some help?? ;)

As for some women liking men to talk about their exes or sexual exploits, I have been guilty of that too so just because I'm over it now doesn't mean I'll never do it again.

I seriously considered adding that men should be aware that blowing your nose without a handkerchief is a major turn off, and that belching and farting are not sports events unless you are with other guys. Also, unless you know the woman is a huge sports fan, keep the play by play discussion of last weekend's game for your buddies. In my case, just mentioning football causes my eyes to cross and glaze over.

One I would love to get through to someone I know before he loses his current girlfriend. Stop saying "I don't care." and "That has nothing to do with me, why do you keep talking about it?" I've heard him say it literally dozens of times.

Carolyn - Blowing their nose without tissue?? Grody to the max!! Don't think I've ever been party to that one. I suggest you buy that dude some hankies so that he can get the message.

As for the belching and farting outloud in front of us women folk, that is so nasty and disrespectful! Why can't they just excuse themselves and go to the potty and take care of business? They act as if it were a spectator sport...lol!

Then the ones who go play by play on the games, early on in the relationship, cool. But once they know you don't really care then they should stop with that. Nothing worse than that is one who talks incessantly about anything and everything while you're trying to watch a show on tv, or watch the forecast or even while watching a movie...*shakes head* shut up already; please.

Oh, and the best one is the comment "I don't care," well if he doesn't care so little then he shouldn't make you waste your breath and just pack up and leave buddy boy! ;)

Charli - Sounds like you married a real he-man. Good that he doesn't know how to use a blow dryer. I have known some who could blow dry circles around me, lol!

Ballistics expert?? Wow, now that is impressive! I love all of the cop shows on A&E, and Tru TV, and MSNBC and Discovery Investigations. Criminal investigations with cold case files and Dr. G, and forensic files and all of those types of shows are my hobby! I am intrigued by DNA and ballistics and luminol and all of that stuff that gets the criminal convicted ultimately. Fascinating stuff!!

Jeff - I'm sure that as foxy as you are you don't have a thing to worry about now do you? These are just common sense things that men shouldn't do when in our company and usually something a man learns early on in life from experience or upbringing so I am sure you have heard of at least a few of these. ;)

It kind of makes me feel insecure in a sense but not really but kind of, do you know what I mean? Of course in Rick's case its probably that he's just a porn pervert. I don't mind the magazines because I do like reading or looking at them but I can't get into the movies 99% of the time because the type he has have no plot just straight f'ing and thats not sexy or erotic to me.

Oh, Rick dare not say anything about my shoes ever! None other have but he seems to feel like he can and I won't have it!! I will wear my 3-4 inchers til my cold dead body is in that urn...lol!

Pepsie - Adjusting whatever they're adjusting is on the list. I didn't want to get specific as to what appendage as their are 3 but thought everyone could use their own imagination. Thanks for pointing it out to me though!

Jules - You are so right! Its just sick with no emotion, no eroticism, no nice atmosphere, no nothing just grunting which I despise and have him turn the volume down if he insists on watching it. But he watches it in the sanctity of his own room no where else. The magazines, well, some are very nice to look at and you do learn stuff from some of the magazines. Some of those magazines just as soon go all the way up to the tonsils they show tooooooooooooo much!!

A two-way reality is where its happening! You can have a fantasy become a reality and it can be a heck of a lot more fun too!

Of course, that may be why I'm a three time loser, and spend time with a little dog, I suppose................

Ron - If you love your dog is not the issue. Paying or playing with the dog or pet more than with the woman in your life when she is around is the issue. Sometimes it is fun to partake in the playing with your particular pet, other times we women want you guys' undivided attention, thats all! Nothing wrong with it at all.

I don't think that you are a three time loser because of anything that you have done. It could quite possibly be that you just haven't met your life partner yet. Good luck in doing so.

Shannon - Apparently you have never been a starving college student or starving artist of any type who depends on tips to make a living. Sure if the service is bad take it up with the manager but if the food is bad it isn't the servers fault and they only earn something like less than 2 dollars per hour because of the tips. Do you think anyone can survive on that??

You forgot this: On a date do not wear underwear that is over six months old.

Unlike antique art, antique underwear does not become more interesting.

I think your list ran a little short.

Here's a list woman should not do in the company of men. Disobey. Ha!

Well do I remember the pre married sheet changing. I'd just wallow in my sty until the possibility of a female guest arose. Then, clean sheets and everything else crammed in the closet.

My wife hates impressions. Especially these two: Mentally handicapped, Richard Simmons. Both of which I execute with disturbing authenticity. I don't think there's a woman alive who has ever thought their guy's "Fat Bastard" (Austin Powers) impression was funny.

Inez - Actually I am rather surprised that more men didn't respond. Possibly some are feeling intimidated or insecure as I have a tendency to write about things that we women usually see wrong with some of the things that men do or say. I love men for the record and wouldn't trade any that I have ever known for the world; except maybe one or two. ;(

Bret - Thanks for your candor in regards to the sheets! I won't go there with my worst experience as a result of unclean sheets but suffice it to say that I had to go to the doctor as I was itching so bad. And no, they weren't crabs!

As for those imitations, I really don't mind them IF done at the right time and the right place...Otherwise they can be somewhat embarressing at other times.

I personally would love to hear your Richard Simmons imitation but the Austin Powers one, naw!

Free Spirit or the guy next door ~. Mar 2, 2008, 6:29pm EST
One list is not enough---where is the one "what woman should not do in the present of a man"---I do have to agree with most of what you said but if a woman is going to scrutinize me that close I think I would just save my money and go see a movie by myself. The only one I would have a problem with is number 1---being a desert rat and once a law man I just feel naked without life support---Oh, I would never clean it in front of you and you would not even know I was carrying. I alway believe in protecting that special person I am with---even with my life...

Hi Esther I like the photo you posted for your article. It reminded of a a poem I wrote sometime ago.

Raven beauty

Dark haired Raven
steel blue eyes.
Crippled soul
old and wise.

Heated skin
Satan's lot.
A Woman's scent
sweet and hot.

Queen of hell
the demon sent.
Would eat my heart
my passions rent.

Heart so cold
alibis.
Widowed willow
full of lies.

Is it me
you seek the most?
Demonic whore
am I the host?

Battles raged
within my soul.
Eternal damnation
was your goal.

The allure and musk
satin sweet.
Consumed my soul
with red hot heat.

No will to live
for I have died.
On the Cross of life
was crucified.
