The Doghouse....we've all been there

Seems like you got it wired. Then again you're engaged.

Doghouse - Jesus, listen to yourselves. You're not men - pathetic. I'm with onedge.

RANT/ Call me whatever but the dog house concept is total bullshit. Granted I piss my girlfriend off way more than she does me.... it's insulting in that the 'doghouse' provides a ready made superiority complex. How do they get off thinking they are entitled to anymore than exactly 50% say in any given issue in a relationship! I doubt they'd like it if they were in the Bitch house./RANT

The idea that women have a moral high-ground and intellectual superiority completely pervades our culture. Look at any given television show and men are often assholes, idiots or dullards while the women are "right".

On the other hand... I would raise my glass to fellas like OUSOONER. It takes a certain type of man to make good on marriage.

Just admit you are a jerk and promise her you will fix it.
You will never win and she will have the last say

I agree there is a double standard. But then again, I thank God every day that I am not a chick, so I'm willing to deal with it.

Sorry. This guy dosen't fold like a lawn chair. Whatever the implications of that are.... I think I'll hang on to my dignity instead of gift wrapping my balls and handing them to someone else. You wouldn't do in prison so why would you of your own free will?

Ya know, its not like you will grow a vagina one of these nights if you stop thanking god. I'm pretty sure one thanking session is enough.

Because we men will never lose our desire for screwing, we'll alway be the underdog.....

Every Monday I get up and apologize for the rest of the week...for all the fuck-ups that, in her eyes (real or not), I'm going to do. Part of it is I just don't need the nagging and crap that comes along with pissing her off. The other part is what Hal alluded to, sex. My wife keeps herself in very good shape and still puts out...on average...at least 4-5 times a week. Thats after 13 years of marriage. She gets upset with the porn thing but understands if it wasn't for that, she would be prone twice that number. Yes, I apologize for the porn I'm going to look at ahead of time. I'm a man, it's what I do.

a) Dumb women aren't funny. Dumb guys are hilarious.
b) Part of running the show means being able to take a few jokes.

Crap. My fiance actually wants a gym membership for Christmas... now I have to figure out if it's a trap or not.

I'll be honest, I'm a regular member of the doghouse. After my daughter was born, my wife was too fat, period. I found a pic of her ass in a thong when we started dating and posted in on the fridge. It was a reminder of what was and what could be or more to the point, should be. It was never the same but became close, even now, for a 37 year old vs a 24 year old. Sometimes a man has to do what a man has to do, even if it means spending time in the doghouse :tongue2_1 I'll whip that pic out again if need be.

I say buy it...even if it is a trap, its worth the risk.
