I called my gf a PIG, by mistake... What do I do now?

yeah, so try doing anything in your power to try and satisfy women. become a pussy.

I suppose that women should have to put up with all kinds of derogatory remarks so their boyfriends can feel less emasculated?

I'm sorry, could you clarify that statement for me? Are you referring to being respectful to a woman's views about her body as being a serious thing as being a pussy?

There are far more productive ways to express what you think about a person's looks than resorting to calling them names. If you feel their weight is becoming a health problem, or you know, if you're shallow enough to demand that they force their body to conform to your standards then sure say something.

What I said was, don't joke about a woman's looks or body. Ever. They take it seriously, and in a hurtful manner. Even if you meant absolutely nothing about it, they will remember it. Which has absolutely nothing to do at all with enforcing your standards that you have in a mate or the needs you require them to meet in a relationship.

If you believe I said something that was incorrect, please clarify, otherwise end your passive-aggressive attacks on me now.

I thought Dig was being sarcastic with that post?

I feel both ways around it, since I have more guy friends than females, I am used to guys' sense of humor. And they do joke and call each other names, and so do I. there's nothing wrong with it, it's not meant in a demeaning way. I just feel that most men in this country are wussies.

I wouldn't be angry, I'd rather say oh than You're a pig****er and You kissed a pig's ass this night

[Charlie Boy II]

omfg it was in the context of playful banter. It's not like he said,

"you know what honey? You look like a pig."

She's being ridiculous. Unless she actually is a bit chubby, that would change everything.

And I disagree he wasn't hurt by her mouse comment.

Oh, he probably was hurt by her comment, and embarrassed as well. That doesn't make retaliation or escalation the proper response. I've dated several women who felt this was the way to "win" a disagreement.

Really all he can, and should do, is apologize outright for his comment with no excuse, then explain how he felt when she made hers. Leave it at that, and move on with life. Whether she's in it or not.

This is something I will back you completely 100% whole-heartedly on. I've met quite a few men with marital issues and one of the first things they will say is, "I'm afraid of my spouse." Outright. You cannot be an equal in a relationship if you fear the other person in it.

Well, another voice of reason. Thanks lite.

It's hard not to fear your spouse when she's an emotional wreck and constantly threatening to leave you for cracking a joke or leaving the toilet seat up.

In that case, are you really losing something, or gaining your own sanity back? As for leaving the seat up, as a member of the male species, I really don't want to have to look at a the inside of a toilet bowl, so I tend to just put both lids down. (This also can anger a woman btw...)

But ya know, sometimes you can't help but laugh when you hear "splash" <scream> late at night.

[misombra]

you said that? you're a fuking idiot. sorry.

[Charlie Boy II]

what if your man did that to you Misombra? Let me guess, you'd do this etc, etc, etc, and that etc, etc, etc, strong woman etc, etc, etc.

[misombra]

my boyfriend knows not to say shit like that. he's what you call a "smart person."

[Charlie Boy II]

Give me a f-cken break.
