After 10 months of focused research, I have finally created a comprehensive list of the main reasons that men exist. Please let me know if I’ve left any out.
My results show that men exist to:
– Grill amazing things
– Remove bugs
– Zip up my dress
– Fasten my bracelet
– Check if food is too hot before I take a bite
– Find out what that sound was downstairs
– Remind me that I live in a land of make-believe
– Reach high places
– Hold *this* for a second while I look for/do *that*
– Make me laugh
– Pick which shoes I should wear after I’ve narrowed it down
– Fix the toilet
– Tell me when there’s something wrong with my car
– Teach me about something that I didn’t originally find interesting,
such as space or different types of screwdrivers
– Remind me that farts exist and that they are hilarious
– Accidentally say something stupid while trying to compliment me
– Remind me that so many other women are hotter than I am
– Fix my electronics
– Practice impregnating me
The simplicity of this is very funny. “Practice impregnating me” really caught me off guard. Good one!

they’re also pretty good (for the most part) at reminding you that you could possibly be the hottest woman alive, no?!

hahaha – you get funnier and funnier – i could think of a million other reasons why men exist but i think i’ll work on a “why women exist” list instead. maybe one item will be ‘to explain to men why they exist’ 🙂

This list is pretty perfect. Except that they definitely should be reminding you of your massive hotness.
Oh, I just thought of a few:
Opening jars and lifting heavy stuff
Explaining why the ref threw the flag during a football game (assuming you care about football at all)
Explaining the finer points of Jackass: The Movie

Good call(s). I never know why the ref throws the flag and even though they’re usually snappy about me asking why, they always explain!

Exactly. I never know why either and Mr. W always patiently explains.

Excellent list. To it I would add “carry everything for me.” My husband is the best pack mule ever.

Because they have such big strong muscles! This is the main one I forgot.

And even if they don’t have big strong muscles, they’ll carry our crap, anyway, so they don’t come across as weaklings. It’s a win-win.

The good news is that you didn’t combine any of these. For ex: Teaching you about different screw drivers while trying to impregnate you.
That would be so distracting.

You make a fine point here because that would be so distracting. Reminding me that farts exist while practicing impregnating me….soo unfortunate.

My husband is the son of a jockey, so he’s not reaching anything up high for me. He does all the other stuff, though, so I let it slide.

I did comment jokingly on some other girl’s blog, after she’d completely run down some poor guy that had shown an interest in her, how it’s a hard life being man. She got quite upset and started ranting at me how men have inherited and rule the Earth, and so it’s hardly difficult… I stopped following her after that.

I do think you menfolk take a lot of crap these days. I like to joke about the little things you all do that we can appreciate.

One of our more verbally extravagant former politicians (John Prescott) got a lot of stick for using the word “womenfolk”. When he had a bucket of water thrown over him by a member of the British “alternative music” band Chumbawamba he said it had “terrified the womenfolk”, but they were probably at that point all stood on stools screaming so that all we could see of them were their striped stockings… So keep it up.

Men aren’t perfect. Most need help in relationships. Women often think men should automatically know how to treat us. They don’t. It’s up to us to instruct them.
Women spend too much time bitching to their friends about men and not enough time bitching at the man. LOL

No, the reason men exist is to only practice impregnating you. All the other stuff we do is only so that you’ll let us practice impregnating you.
