A bit of a rant
I’m going to post this here.
Some men really tick me off. And I don’t mean in the “you forgot to do the dishes” kind of way that husbands can annoy you – I mean in the completely rude, completely uncalled for kind of way.
Just yesterday I read an article written about “what not to say to a TTCer” – I can’t remember which blog it was at, though, but if I find it I’ll post a link. One of the items was not to say anything rude/lewd. Now one would think that this would be rather a given, but I have actually had at least one male friend “jokingly” say, “Well if you need me to step in and do the job…” Excuse me? My head almost exploded. Why is it that some men have absolutely no freaking clue that some jokes aren’t funny? At all. I feel very lucky that I married an older guy who seems to “get” it – he doesn’t make lewd jokes about other womens’ breasts at all, much less to their face (yes, I’ve gotten that too – and not just about my breasts). Actually Den tends to get very embarassed by other guys doing stupid, insensitive, macho type things. (And I love him for it.) But what on earth are those men thinking??
