I know I've posted this before (but without the Search function I couldn't reference a link), but Stephs' Rules for Men post reminded me of this funny Point System a male co-worker sent me.
I know I may live to regret this, but I challenge the men to come up with a gender-reversed point system for women! 😀
Anyway, here goes...
Okay, I don't want any more complaints now. I'm making this very simple for you guys -- you often claim to not understand what women want... below is a preliminary guideline to memorize and, more importantly, act upon.
Mind you, we don't expect you to always understand why these things are important... just that you perform them correctly ;-)
THE POINT SYSTEM
For thousands of years, men have tried to understand the rules when dealing with women. Finally, this merit/demerit guide will help you to understand just how it works. Remember, in the world of romance, one single rule applies: Make the woman happy. Do something she likes, and you get points. Do something she dislikes and points are subtracted. You don't get any points for doing something she expects. Sorry, that's the way the game is played. Here is a guide to the points system:

I think that get out of a nice warm bed even if you did kill the cat has got to be worth something.
