no!

OrmIrian · 20/06/2008 17:09

Ah the old pork sword eh?

No. They don't. Even when they are middle aged.

PersonalClown · 20/06/2008 17:10

My bloke doesn't. No that I'm complaining but...

Where are their brains located?

ivykaty44 · 20/06/2008 17:10

You are lucky that he is as old as 15 - most men stop at 12 and never get any older

kerryk · 20/06/2008 17:11

oh can i also add bending over to that list, even my mum has commented that i am the only person she knows who looks nervous when bending over. it has to be bad if even she has noticed.

PMSL at the bending over, Kerry!

My DH is as bad.

And do you also get the "while you're down there" line whenever you are on your knees for whatever reason?

And the really funny thing is my DH is the post politically correct bloke anyone has ever met in their lives.

Sigh.

YES all the time!!!

I meant most not post

Freudian slip though perhaps. Maybe there really such a thing as "post politically correct."

The old subconscious could actually be on to something here.

I take a Banana and a yogurt to work with me for breakfast and eat it add my desk - I would add especially when they're middle aged OrmIrian.

I do it deliberately to brighten their days now.

'do men ever stop thinking about getting there leg over?'

some of them do.

what is he, in year 10?

is he 21?

that would so majorly put me off. not even funny after a while. just stupid.

i don't understand what some people put up with.

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 20/06/2008 18:29

Yeah, but they might enjoy the naughty step

I can never understand why men love to see woman sweating either. Quite a few I know find it a real turn on - very odd.

kerryk · 20/06/2008 18:38

yes i could see mine enjoying the naughty step a bit to much!!

Well you could start mashing your bananas and cutting your sausages into pieces I suppose.

Actually my DH doesn't do the letching if I eat those items* but as I said does do the rest.

Although I do sometimes say it's like living with Sid James, actually I don't find it all that bad. At least he still fancies me.

*although he is a vegetarian and there is often an oh-so-hilarious double entendre deployed when we are having vegetarian sausages for tea, so perhaps you can count me in on that one after all...

Flashman · 20/06/2008 20:38

I imagine thats why we are always much happier than most women - never having to grow up!!

BEAUTlFUL · 20/06/2008 20:54

I could eat eclairs doing yoga and my DH wouldn't raise an eyebrow, let alone a sweat.

BEAUTlFUL · 20/06/2008 20:55

Yesterday I ate a carrot. Nothing.

hellish · 20/06/2008 20:56

Can I add getting undressed, taking a shower, or just generally breathing in and out to your list?

BEAUTlFUL · 20/06/2008 21:22

Is this some horrific "Who has the keenest husband" contest?

hellish · 20/06/2008 21:36

ha ha beautiful - i hadn't thought of it that way. He often tells me I should be grateful he's still interested.

I find it bloody offputting actually

smartiejake · 20/06/2008 21:36

Take one large cucumber.

Take one large meat cleaver.

Chop cucumber in vicious manner in front of dp/dh.

Problem solved!
