When it's on the side it isn't called a fly. It is a placket and all women's trousers used to have them on the side rather than in front. Skirts also used to have plackets in the side rather than in the back. It's much easier to reach to zip them up that way.

Typical male reaction. Over the years women's clothes have become more male-like. I don't think I have a single pair of trousers with a side zip anymore.

I'm getting on pretty good. It's a great job. I get to be terribly important without having to do any actual work. What a life!
And how are things with you? Have you gone back to work?

So then I've noticed!
Next question! Why do women spend so much of there time mucking about cleaning and washing up and stuff, rather than having some fun out and about?? Asked my missus if she'd like to come out to one of the many beaches around our coast (about 2 hours away) have a meal and do some shopping at the christmas market on the way back... sounds like a nice day out.... the house was cleaned by me the day before......the answer was........ this house needs to be cleaned properly!
Wimm'in are weired

RJR, your wife is apparently a better housekeeper than I am. I hate cleaning house and will always accept an invitation to do something else. I figure that in a hundred years no one will give a rip whether my house was clean or not. I generally wait until the arrival of guests before I do any serious cleaning. And then only if it is the right guests.

Oh I dont know. I can spend quite a time getting ready when I need to. Having said that it took me less then a minute to get dressed for coming up to the library (why wont the doctor just give me pills).
Having said that, its taken three hours to skin my head using a razor and a pair of sissors so I guess it depends on occasion and how long it'll last.
A guy would do his nails if he didnt have to do them again for at least three months.
