For men, who have such a hard time telling us how they feel in general, why is it they have to have the last word? whistlewink.

We don't have a hard time explaining how we feel, we know that you'll eventually figure it out for yourself. Why put in that effort, or risk a misinterpretation? See, we're all about efficiency and keeping the peace. You'll tell us how we feel, and we'll give you the last word mentioned above ya, ie: "Yes Dear!" grin

So that's how it is, boy, if I figured this out a while ago... you men should just come out and say it. cool I must have this all wrong then, I can never figure men out...but I will admit some of those rules are quite right, sorry ladies. blush

Well, if one of the sexes doesn't come out and say it, the other should. Hence, it is upon you men to be the bold ones while us women are subtle, partly because we are better at it. Stick to what you are more efficient at. If men are not good at being subtle it's up to us women to be so. smile

So, remember out in Nik and Jer's fish house when I proclaimed equal rights across the board, but couldn't come up with an example.....

There ya go! In my truely equal rights world, there's no gender role when it comes to chores, payment, or convo domination/initiation! cool

Of course, there's just a touch of spite. Hense the reason I put both seat and lid down after every use. If I have to lift something, so do you! grin

Maybe the reason that we dont come out and say it is because we are giving you the benefit of the doubt that you CAN read our minds and know everything that we are thinking... Gotta give you gals some credit... smile

I have been married for over 30 years,, AND TO THE SAME WOMAN. lol. There are always going to be "Man Rules" and womans view points. No matter what we think of our rules , or the way we do or don't do things. or the way we think and interpit her. it is never going to be the same way she views it. So... just to clear things up see Rule #1

Women should not be allowed to use the words "fine" and "whatever" in an arguement. becasue we all know if a guy says, honey im going fishing with the guys, and the reply is "fine" they really dont mean fine, or ok, or sure.

if "whatever" comes out, that doesnt mean they dont care, or sure,or yes thats ok. For lack of a better/nicer term "go jump off a bridge!" laughlaugh

Croth- we should add "maybe" and "I don't know" to that list as well. Both of those regularly cause problems. They both lead to women having a plan but not wanting to deal with the issue at hand so when the guy deals with it they can quietly be mad for weeks on end.

My friends and I use the words "fine" and "whatever" in an exasperated tone. That should be a clue. Especially when accompanied by a very audible sigh.

Typically, we use the more subtle ways of telling our true feelings, since we cannot handle our husbands acting like our children when told "no". blushgrin

I have had the great pleasure of hanging around groups of women and groups of men ( the benifits of being lesbian I guess ) anyway - they are soooo different. But I love em both.

Being one of the "guys" and traveling and fishing with Scott, his brother and nephew, is so very different from traveling and fishing with the women from this forum. I truely enjoy both versions. You just need to except the difference and enjoy the differences.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
