Why are blokes so bloody CHILDISH

This morning I was rushed off my feet trying to get DS to nursery and was running late and DH was stood behind me flicking milk at my bum.

Now my grandma has IBS so tends to talk about bog problems a lot and so he thought it would be hilarious to take a photo of a huge pile of horse shit and send it to her saying he'd done it.

AIBU to think whether you're male or female shouldn't excuse you acting like a 5 year old?

we all know that men never ever grow up so what is the point of expecting them to

Two things:

a) Not all blokes are childish
b) Your DH clearly sees himself as a joker - whether he is or not is a matter of opinion for those who actually know him.

That's all I can say.

Oh and being a joker doesn't necessarily equate to childishness.

HornySwoggle · 06/10/2011 22:34

but it's stupid and pointless and you'd think he'd notice that he's the only one laughing

Of course they're not ALL childish, but my (40 year old) DH and his bf still find poo and fart jokes hilarious Confused

I once trod in dogshit and they giggled like school kids for hours. Hmm (was actually quite funny as the more I tried to wipe it off, the more I somehow covered my jeans in it).

Well, tell him then!

And your title suggest all blokes are like this. They aren't - despite what devonshire says.

If your DH's infantile sense of humour annoys you, let him know and point out that no-one else thinks he's funny either.
