Yeah, how moronic to remember the struggles that women have endured and still do in many parts of the world because they are not treated as intellectual equals to men.

Why not have both? I have both. Marriage is not about giving things up...at least not in this house. She cooks awesome food but sometimes I want a sandwich and she does it a lot better than me. San

Big holiday in Ukraine given the quality of the women from there, I understand. It is three days off for most people. People with FSU women in their lives truly appreciate and value them and take this occasion to show how much we know we are the luckiest men on earth!

I have taken the day off work as well as Alla has. Alla took tomorrow off also...four day weekend for her! Pasha and I have been shopping and piled up the gifts, about 50% more than for "New Years" and a little less than for a birthday. I am up early to wrap everything. :D

Pasha will give her gifts and then go to school and Alla and I plan a day of shopping, meeting one of her Russian friends and husband for lunch, going shooting (it IS Thursday and Thursday and Saturday are shooting days) then out for dinner and possibly a late movie.

Big holiday!

Ok serious question for the sandwich guys.

If you got yourself a compliant woman (first, tell me where you found one cuz I never been that lucky) who will cook you a meal, why on earth do you want her to make you a freakin' sandwich?

I mean, seriously guys... put the b***h to work. A sandwich is lazy. I can make myself a freakin' sandwich. If you got a b***h who will make you what you want, take advantage of it.

Isn't there something else you'd rather eat?

Only other acceptable item other than a Sammich is a Steak and let's be honest, I don't want a woman (no offense) around the grill!

I would prefer you do not call women "b*tch". I know you think it is OK but it is not OK.

i'd much rather she spend the afternoon and cook me something really nice.

bonus: she leaves me alone while she cooks so i can watch tv.

we don't have TV. I'd rather have a sandwich and a BJ. Then an afternoon of shooting.
