Most of them are true..but in general..is just about how selfish are some mens. Of course I am sure that women act in the same selfish way.

I think these rules are correct, and are like the truth smacking you right on the face. If any woman here does not see that, then she lives in a bubble and has problems in relationships… BTW, Lucrecia if you don’t believe these rules are not only hilarious, but true, honey you need a reality check!
In readin these rules, I could totally see my husband described in each one of them.
I also want to clarify that even though I agree with ALL of these rules, it does not mean I follow them all the time. Especially, Yes and No are no perfect answers to every question!

instead of so much blabbing i suggest one should read Men are from Mars and Women from Venus…It will completely solve our problem…Women and Men are like two different poles of a magnet..But opposites attract isnt it..?
We are supposed to complete each other and not compete with each…

Sorry Lucrecia:

I have to agree with Bob – I’m straight – married 34 years – 2 sons, 3 brothers. I found the list funny, and oh so true – the basis of any good comedy, it’s based on reality.

Lucrecia, If you read Mr Coelho’s note before the list, you would have read the part that says, he is NOT the author.

no they are stupid. shall i make a little list for men concering their relations with the female sexe?
1. do not nother us with lousy lists of male habits – we do not like them.
2. do not neglect or patronize us when we enjoy our shoe-fetish
3. do not say nothing about the fat-issue
4. et c.

I think these are fun rules. But if we obey them, men will become annoyed and suspicious, because it is not feminine of us to be as these rules say and exchange us for an irritating nagging drama queen, who is just the opposite.

this is really a disgusting piece of work mr coelho. why don’t you stick to your desk writing novels about life, fate, brujas, and mystic stuff. this really sucks. i by the way hate football on tv.

Jenny I just read this and believe this applies to all men! As a gay man, I am willing to bet a weeks pay that you are not in a relationship, but, if you are, it is not a happy one! I have been with one for 21 years!!! ;)

i think men with those rules are cruel…and men should always think that women are always sensitive and they always need an affection.

(in my opinion)

1 – need a wig
3- same applies
5 – must be the exception to the rule
8- obviously have never heard of the Imelda Marcos’ male version
17 – definitively not
19 – really? is that the “blue rinse”?
20- Inspector “Gadget” we all have one of those

Have a look at the Astronomy Picture of the Day into the archives of Nasa – in the shadow of Saturn – if you have not look at it yet It was yesterday’s picture – awesome -

You silly women. Who gave you the right to think you have more brains than us men? We men understand you women perfectly – we pretend not to, because that is what you expect of us. We ARE different than you. Live with it. ACCEPT it. Then maybe we, both sexes, can finally live together in harmony. It is so tiring for us men having to live with you lot constantly trying to prove yourselves, especially to each other. We love you. Now get on with life and live free!

rules are meant to be broken.

Aja- You say that (they won’t take the time to understand us any better!) like understanding you is possible! No, we won’t understand you if we “just take the time to do it.” Time is not a factor here. You are an enigma, un-understandable, impossible, and wonderful. I think these are less rules and more like simply little factoids: this is the way it is. Rules can be changed, but the truth is that none of this is available for discussion. They just are. Not all of them are mine, but they all ring true. Accepting them simply un-complicates things.

I love these, they are great, very true…and ladies we might as well try to understand them a little better… especially because they won’t take the time to understand us any better!
