Drawing from ToothpasteForDinner.com...

    (a collection of men's thoughts on their women)

 ... she has an uncanny way of standing between me and the
 television screen.  Bases loaded, two strikes, three balls.
 The crowd goes wild, the pitch flies, and all I can see is
 her butt.  -- Howard, Dodge City, Kan.

 ... she was furious when I got up early once and made her
 breakfast.  Called me controlling.  How dare I decide that
 she would eat breakfast, let alone what she'd have?
   -- Ted, Wexford, Pa.

 ... what's mine is hers. I buy her negligees; she sleeps in
 my T-shirts.  When she's cold she wears my wool socks to bed,
 never her own. She steals my half-used razors; new ones are
 too sharp.  She even wears my boxers.  I'm tempted to switch
 to briefs just to see what she'd do.
    -- Dave, Martha's Vineyard, Mass.

 ... she makes lists.  Things to buy.  Things to do.  People
 to call.  If it's not on the list, it doesn't get done.  Once,
 to be funny, I put "sex" on the list.  Mistake.  Now it has to
 be on the list or it doesn't get done.  -- Nick, Wheeling, W.Va.

 ... when she gets an idea in her head, there's no stopping her.
 And no rest for anyone until it's done.  It's not so bad when
 the idea is to bake cookies, or even to go on vacation.  But
 when it's to build a new house, or to get pregnant, things get
 pretty intense.  -- Jim, Minneapolis

 ... you can hear her eat soup from the next room.
   -- Bruce, Bridgewater, N.J.

 ... my wife thinks everyone should be a vegetarian.  During
 meals, she asks people how they can eat dead cows, or if
 they know that their pork chops used to be smarter than
 their dogs.  -- Miles, Shreveport, La.

 ... every so often boom she's a brunette. Or I come home to
 a redhead.  Actually, I have no idea what her natural color
 is.  -- Cary, Seattle

 ... she'll brush her teeth but she won't go to the dentist.
 She says she's not afraid of the pain, she just doesn't want
 to put herself in the hands of any fellow who'd choose to be
 a dentist.  -- Terence, Gary, Ind.

 ... she's stopped shaving her legs. She says that now people
 will know she's a natural blonde.  -- Ned, Tucson, Ariz.

 ... she takes her half of the bed out of the middle.
   -- Robin, Gladwyne, Pa.

 ... have you ever seen a woman with green crust and slime
 smeared over her face, dark holes for her nostrils?  Do you
 think you'd be able to sleep at night, knowing that creature
 is next to you?  -- Arthur, Cedar City, Utah

 ... my wife's allergic to everything. Her nose is chronically
 stuffed.  If I kissed her on the mouth, she'd suffocate.
   -- Bryan, Toledo, Ohio

 ... after sex, I mean the second after, she continues where
 she left off.  Her eyes open and before you can breathe, you
 hear, "... and, oh, yeah, I have to defrost the chicken, and
 your mother wants you to pick up her dry cleaning ..."
   -- Jimmy, Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

 ... in bed I'm her high school teacher, captain of the foot-
 ball team, her boss, the bad boy, a waiter, a lifeguard, a
 telephone repairman, a cop.  Once in a while I'd like to be me.
   -- Neil, Orlando, Fla.

 ... she wears these false eyelashes.  She left 'em lying
 around and I slammed 'em with my newspaper, tried to kill the
 damn things. Scared me half to death.
   -- Gordon, Oklahoma City, Okla.

 ... she takes those soaps too seriously.  I'll come home and
 find her in tears because some character died.  Or upset that
 some nonexistent guy's having a fictional affair.
   -- Archie, St. Louis

 ... she will not shop at discount stores or sales.  She thinks
 they're crowded and plebian.  She doesn't even look at the
 reduced rack, other than, perhaps, for gifts for my mother.
   -- Conrad, Wilmington, Del.

 ... it annoys her that our children look like me.
   -- James, New Orleans

 ... counting my wife and our teenage girls, that's four women.
 Somebody's always got PMS.  -- Everett, Little Rock, Ark.

 ... with five kids, I don't have time to complain about my wife.
 I don't have time to notice her.  -- Bob, Charleston, W.Va.
