I heard my grown daughter tell my wife (her stepmom), "Aw isn't that cute, he thinks he gets a vote." Then she says to me, "go ahead Dad, tell us what you think." The two of them completly mocking me. So I just say, "yes dear..."

Even us women don't get other women.
That said, our culture has made an art form out of teaching men they are dolts. It bothers me. Women are not the amazing creatures of all knowledge and men are not dolts. We each have our strengths and weaknesses. I can clean up a room, supervise math work, and get dinner up all at the same time with the best or them. Ask me to make an excel file with formulas, conditional formatting, and pivot tables and I am 110% lost, but my husband is not only capable but makes good money doing it. I can bake bread. My husband can build our bed. I can teach reading. Chris can teach calculus.
Our culture has said that men are doltish and disorganized. My husband works a full-time job, is taking 12 credit hours (has a 4.0 at the moment), spends time with his children, volunteers for civil air patrol, and is a college umpire. He is not a dolt or disorganized.
Give yourself some credit men. You do good work. Together we make a great team.

I would be it would be quite a drive as we live in Virginia!
He really enjoys teaching the kids, especially when he got to participate in a real world rescue as he and the cadets carried a 280lb man off the mountain. It is amazing what those kids can do when they have to!

I grew up with 5 sisters, no brothers. I raised 3 grown daughters. I have been married for 38 years. After all that experience, I can honestly tell you that I do not understand women!
I sure do love all the women in my life though.

The result of four decades of radical feminism. And it wrecked havoc on our society for both men and women. Especially young men and women.

This image is all wrong. The womans on off switch should read "hot /cold"
Actually I think it should say "You should just know."
mamaBear, your hubby is a fellow baseball umpire? He's alright in my book.
