That's my husband. Except he is not exactly silent. He kvetchs and complains, but when I try to help he tells me to leave him alone :rolleyes: I just hate listening to his kvetching. :angry: If he wants to be left alone he should shut up and stop complaining. Then I will leave him alone. I bet Dante does the same thing to his wife.

So, some men are wimpy when they're sick? I wouldn't know. My white blood cells and T-cells are so manly that I never get sick. I was once sprayed in the face with live anthrax. Didn't even sneeze. I have a question. In the words of Obi-Wan Kenobi: 'Who the wimpier: the wimpy sick man, or the woman who caters to his every desire when he gets sick and wimpy?' |

I have to say that this stereotype of men being wimpy when sick is wholly false. I caught a cold on the airplane on the way back from vacation, and pretty much spent the weekend in bed. I made my own meals, I took my medicine, watched some video, and when my wife popped in occasionally to ask if I needed anything, I said, "No thanks, honey." She, on the other hand, gets this whiney voice whenever she's sick and wants me to lay with her and watch TV and make her food. Which I am happy to do. So there.

Like many men, you confuse behaviors associated with love and affection with weakness and timidity. Tsk. Tsk. |

Not true. I can tell over the internet when you are under the weather. You get all grumpy and start getting on everyone's case. You have admitted as much yourself

Nope. I just don't consider catering to the needs of some sick, wimpy, whiny little pencilneck to be an act of love. If you women really loved your wimpy husbands, I mean REALLY loved them enough to want to help make them better men, you'd tell them to get off their lazy butts and make their own peanut butter and banana sammiches. Run their own baths. Q-tip their own ears, because you're going to the beautician to get the corns sanded off your toes. See, that's my experience. When women love the Slickhead (a terribly common occurrence; some might call it a curse) they go to the beautician to make themselves presentable. They bring me Twinkies or Pop-Tarts for no reason other than they happened to be thinking about me and felt like a little canoodling might be in order. They convince the local zookeeper to bring a couple of monkeys over to Maison Slickhead for me to play with. (The cute little monkeys who don't fling poo.) If you women REALLY love your husbands, tell them to get there own sammiches, and get them a monkey to play with. That's love. |

OK, true. Grumpy, but not whiney. Difference.
And I'm only grumpy at work. When I'm at home sick, I am usually sleeping or watching videos, so I'm not. But being sick and having to babysit attorneys.........

I'm wimpy around spiders! I hate them! Not small ones, but big ones like tarantulas. They are scary If someone threw one on me, they better be in the next county by the time I get myself together. If I catch up with them, there will be a hefty price to pay. One of my old co-workers found out the hard way.
