Subject: A Man's Revenge against "JUST HOLD ME"


I never have quite figured out why the sexual urges of men &
women differ so much. And I never have figured out the whole
Mars & Venus thing. And, I never have figured out why men think
with their head and women with their heart. And, I never yet
have figured out how the sexual desire gene gets thrown into a
state of turmoil, when it hears the words "I do". One evening
last week, my wife and I were getting into bed.

Well, the passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says,
"I don't feel like it, I just want you to hold me." I said,
"WHAT??" So she says the words that I and every husband on the
planet dreads. She explains that I must not be in tune with her
emotional needs as a Woman. I'm thinking, "What was her first
clue?" I finally realize that nothing is going to happen that
night, so I went to bed.

The very next day the we went shopping at a big unnamed
[outfitters'] store... I walked around while she tried on three
very expensive [waterproof/breathable] outfits. She couldn't
decide which one to take, so I told her to take all three of
them. She then tells me that she wants matching [boots] worth
$200 each to which I say OK. And then we go to the [Cookware
Dept. where she gets a set of [titanium pots]. Let me tell you
...she was so excited. She must have thought that I was one wave
short of a shipwreck, but I don't think she cared. I think she
was testing me when she asked for a
[GPS/altimeter/barometer/chronometer] because she doesn't even
[hike with a map]. I think I threw her for a loop when I told
her that it was OK. She was almost sexually excited from all of
this and you should have seen her face when she said, "I'm ready
to go, let's go to the cash register."

I could hardly contain myself when I blurted out, "No, honey.
I don't feel like buying all this stuff now." You should have
seen her face ... it went completely blank. I then said, "Really
honey! I just want you to HOLD this stuff for a while."
And just when she had this look like she was going to kill me,
I added, "You must not be in tune with my financial needs as a
Man."
I figure that I should be having sex again sometime during the
spring thaw.
