We always hear "the rules" from the female side. Now here are the rules from the male side . Men Association of Equal Rights of Nigeria at our recently concluded meeting at The Ajikawo’s Estate, Majekobaje Street, Oluwasogo, Lagos came up with the following rules of our own before the much dread Feb. 14th.
1. Ask for what you want. Subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!
2. We don't remember dates. Mark them on a calendar and remind us frequently. Especially our wedding anniversaries and the kid’s birthdays.
3. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
4. Aso-Ebi is not necessary for every party.
5. McDonald or All you can eat restaurant is not a substitute for home cooking.
6. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends and facebook are for.
7. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact all comments become null and void after 7 days.
8. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.
9. Let us look. It doesn't hurt anyone, to look. And for us, its genetic.
10. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.
11. ALL men see in only 16 colours. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a colour. We have no idea what mauve is.
12. Talking to an ex is just that.. Talking.. Not a big deal. We are not trying to apply the “Debe Debe” Rule.
13. Withholding sex because you are upset at us is not an option.. it is not biblical.
14. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," we will believe you. We are not mind readers and we never will be.
15. You have enough clothes and shoes.
16. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself. No offence!
17. Please do not ask us question during football games.
18. I am in shape. Round is a shape.
19. 7 hours in church on Sunday after all night party on Saturday is not acceptable.
20. Wearing the wedding ring is optional. If we forget to wear it, we are not cheating.
Thank you for reading this; Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight and get a bigger V-Day gift to make up for this list…
Lol...We seriously beg to differ.....
