we don't NEED each other, we WANT each other.
lizzyhermit, that is just how it should be. I want to eventually marry a LADY, but by golly, a REAL WOMAN would be fun while I'm still young and can keep ahead of her.
BTW 3: I do all the "women's" work- cooking, cleaning, laundry (which is really a specialized extension of cleaning), windows, mow the grass when the horse cant keep up, wash dishes, etc, etc, and do it as well as, if not better than a woman my age. Gotta throw that in; just cant compete with the previous generation's upbringing of the woman learning how to cook and clean before walking.
I'd rather have a woman help me out in the field, on the pickup, that can drive a truck and trailer, (heck, some guys I know would settle for one that can drive, period), doing other "guy" stuff, than have a perfectly kept home, and dinner ready at 6 every evening. I'm hardly ever there, why not put the effort into something more worthwhile?

PS- 3atatime- you didnt happen to be at the NFR, did you? I caught rounds 8 & 9 on TV. Bulls were a lot rougher than when I was in it. Not sure I could make a living at it now.
