I'm sure I should have actually been a bloke (not that I want to be!) as I'm messy, can't cook (well I can enough so that I don't poison anyone) like Sci-fi and action films, hate ironing things so wear them creased if I can get away with it and hate housework even more. Although I do have a very feminine side and cry at the drop of a hat.

hee... on weekends and evenings my husband's name is "mommy", at least as far as my three-year old goes. He goes from "mommy, mommy, mommy" all day to being looked after by his dad and just can't switch names that fast yet. ha ha ha.

Scott's a great woman, though -- nice legs, gentle spirit. The baby loves him, even if he is a bit hairy for the job.

What is the difference in letting your wife in the front door and your dog in the back door?
When you let your dog in, he shuts up.

That (for some reason) reminded me of a quote I have a feeling you'll like.. Ever wonder why guys can act really stupid at times? Here's your answer:

Guys are gonna kill me for this Laughing out loud

Ran into it while surfing [what a coincidence...]

Quote:
In the hospital, the relatives gathered in the waiting room, where their family member lay gravely ill. Finally, the doctor came in looking tired and somber.
"I'm afraid I am the bearer of bad news.", he said as he surveyed the worried faces. "The only hope left for your loved one at this time is a brain transplant. It's an experimental procedure, semi-risky, and you will have to pay for the brain yourselves."

The family members sat silent as they absorbed the news. At length, someone asked, "Well, how much does a brain cost?"

The doctor quickly responded, "$2000 for a female brain, and $5000 for a male brain."

The moment turned awkward. Men in the room tried not to smile, avoiding eye contact with the women, but some actually smirked.

A girl, unable to control her curiosity, blurted out the question everyone wanted to ask, "Why is the male brain so much more?"

The doctor smiled at her childlike innocence and then to the entire group said, "It's a standard pricing procedure. We have to mark the female brains down, because they're used."

Disaster-Mistress huh? Well, that would be too close to Julias namesake. I thought about getting some sweet mod to shorten it to just "disaster". What do ya'll think about that? Maybe the master part is why some on the forum think I am a guy.....NOT! hehe

maybe I should change my little bears bow tie to PINK.

That was great, Disaster-Master. By the way shouldn't it be Disaster-Mistress? The only problem with those things that you posted was that I immediately forgot them. Except for the toilet seat. I always leave it down, although it does tend to get a little messier that way.

whoops, someone else made it 7-6 guys.

I do like that there is a fairly even distribution of genders here. I think part of it is the respect for each other, independent of gender, by most posters. It is nice to think that women are finally getting more involved online, since the amount of women online has outnumbered men 55% to 45% for a few years now.

Something about chat rooms...

Yeah, it is kind of surprising- most other webmaster related forums definitely don't have the same female presence we have here at TWF. I guess more and more women are finding their way onto the web Smiling

Silly peoples.

I'm impressed that so far there is a fairly even amount of men v. women on this thread. This would be an estimate of the active group, right? I'm sure there are oodles of lurkers who could swing the vote either direction.

Yes, of course you do... men have always been smarter, better looking, more powerful, stronger, healthier etc. etc. than women.
