23 THINGS THAT MAKE YOU FEEL MORE OF A MAN!

1. OPENING JARS - nnng, she's struggling. You take it from her hands, open it effortlessly and pretend she loosened it for you. She didn't. Jars are men's work.

HUBBY COMES TO ME TO OPEN THE JARS



4. SHARPENING A PENCIL WITH A STANLEY KNIFE - Blunt, is it? Hand it here love. No, I don't need a sharpener, you think I can't whittle?

I'D HAVE SHARPENED IT BY THE TIME HE HAS FOUND THE KNIFE

7. HAVING A THIN BIT OF WOOD - in the shed, solely to stir paint with.

ONLY THE ONE BIT



8. HAVING A SCAR - Ideally it'll be a facial knife wound, but even an iron burn on the wrist is good. "Ooh, did it hurt??" "Nahhhh."

IF YOU IRONED MORE - YOU WOULD NOT BURN YA SELF


16. WINKING - turns women to putty. Doesn't it?

NO .................. WE JUST THINK YOU ARE A NUTTER OR HAVE SOMETHING IN YA EYE



22. HAVING SOMETHING PROPERLY WRONG WITH YOU - especially if you didn't make a fuss. "Why was I off? Oh nothing much, just a brain haemorrhage".

IT'S ALWAYS SOMETHING MAJOR WITH MEN - EVEN IF IT IS JUST A SNIFFLE - IT'S PNEUMONIA



23. KNOWING WHICH SCREWDRIVER IS WHICH - "A Phillips? For that? Are you mad, girl?"
