I... don't think there IS a right answer.

The best I hit on was "*smile, shrug* Baby, you're beautiful, jus' the way you are."

Then after she gets done huffing and saying "You didn't answer my question!" etc or being touched that you accept her just whe way she is, you say "But seriously... (then insert what you need to....)
"Your jeans look better" :-\
"You REAAAALLLY need to go to the gym!" :o
"...yeah... um... *head shake*"  :P
Or, if you're lucky-
"Those pants are HOT!" :-*

-dunno how often one can say this after one's after 40...
I hear gravity kicks in eventually... ;)

The best answer I have ever heard is...."Arggh, help me, I think I'm having a heart attack", it completely changes the subject

I think that's why Fred Sanford got so much mileage out of "Oh! The big one! I'm comin' Elizabeth!" :D

Guys the only possible answer is, "No." The only time you might deviate is if she is trying things on to buy. (If you are worried about honesty, remember that it isn't the pants fault.) Seriously though, she is looking for reassurance and if they are really truly awful then just suggest that the other ones do look better.

Agreed.  My gf asks me the above question, then turns around and says "Why don't you ever ask me these things?!"

...
1) I wear cargos, 9/10 of the time.  Cargos do not accentuate even ample female gluteal features.
2) I'm a stick.  If ANYTHING makes my butt look big, I thank God it looks like I HAVE a butt.  I'm just lucky I have HIPS.
3) If I really need the reassurance, I'll ask and look sad.  If I need comfort, though, I'll probably go to my buddies Ben and Jerry.  (refer to 2)  ;)

I've learned I can't speak for women in general, but what I've found is that a woman will use a man in that respect the same way a drunk will use a lamppost.  More for support than illumination.  ;)

Trustworthy.

2. What does it mean when a man is in your bed gasping for

Because if they all went, it would be Hell.

4. Why do men like smart women?
Opposites attract.

5. How are husbands like lawn mowers?
They're hard to get started, they emit noxious odours,
and half the time they don't work.

6. How do men define a "50/50" relationship?
We cook-they eat; we clean-they dirty; we iron-they wrinkle.

7. How do men exercise on the beach?
By sucking in their stomachs every time they see a bikini.

8. How do you get a man to stop biting his nails?
Make him wear shoes.

9. How does a man show he's planning for the future?
He buys two cases of beer instead of one.

10. How many men does it take to screw in a light bulb?

13. What's the best way to force a man to do sit ups?
Put the remote control between his toes.

14. What's the smartest thing a man can say?
"My wife says..."

15. Why are all dumb blonde jokes one liners?
So men can understand them.

16. Why did God create man before woman?
Because you're always supposed to have a rough draft
before creating your masterpiece.

17. Why do female black widow spiders kill the males after mating?
To stop the snoring before it starts.

18. Why do jocks play on artificial turf?
To keep them from grazing.

19. Why do men need instant replay on TV sports?
Because after 30 seconds they forget what happened.

20. Why does it take 100 million sperm to fertilize one egg?
Because not one will stop and ask for directions.

21. Why is psychoanalysis a lot quicker for men than for women?
When it's time to go back to his childhood, he's already there

HOW TO TREAT A WOMAN:

Wine her. Dine her. Call her. Hold her. Surprise her. Compliment her. Smile at her. Listen to her.
Pray for her. Cuddle with her. Shop with her. Give her jewellery. Buy her flowers. Hold her hand. Write her love letters. Go to the ends of the earth and back again for her.

HOW TO TREAT A MAN:

Show up naked. Bring beer.

3: Any Man who brings a camera to a bachelor party may be legally killed and eaten by his buddies.

4: Unless he murdered someone in your family, you must bail a friend out of jail within 12 hours.

5: If you've known a guy for more than 24 hours, his sister is off limits forever unless you actually marry her.

6: Moaning about the brand of free beer in a buddy's fridge forbidden. However complain at will if the temperature is unsuitable.

7: No man shall ever be required to buy a birthday present for another man. In fact, even remembering your buddy's birthday is strictly optional.

I beg to differ ;)

I've always lived by the saying 'you pick your friends, not your family', rather than that old 'blood is thicker than water' bull#$%* 8)


Which did lead to some 'interesting' conversations with my Mum in the lead up to my wedding, when my parasite aunt and her freeloading spawn didn't get an invite ;D

How can you tell soap operas are fictional?
In real life, men aren't affectionate out of bed.

What should you give a man who has everything?
A. A woman to show him how to work it.
B. Penicillin

Why don't men have mid-life crises?
They stay stuck in adolescence.

How does a man show he's planning for the Future?
He buys two cases of beer instead of one.

How was Colonel Sanders a typical male?
All he cared about were legs, breasts, and thighs.

How is being at a singles bar different from going to the circus?
At the circus the clowns don't talk.

Why do men chase women they have no intention of marrying?
For the same reason dogs chase cars they have no intention of driving.

 What's the difference between a new husband and a new dog?
A.A dog is always happy to see you
B.A dog only takes a couple of months to train

Why is sleeping with a man like a soap opera?
Just when it's getting interesting, they're finished until next time.

Why do men name their penises?
Because they want to be on a first-name basis with the one who makes all their decisions.

Why is it so hard for women to find men that are sensitive, caring, and good-looking?
Because they already have boyfriends.

 Husband: I don't know why you wear a bra; you've got nothing to put in it.
Wife: You wear briefs, don't you?


How many men does it take to pop popcorn?
Three. One to hold the pan and two others to act macho and shake the stove.

 How are men and parking spots alike?
The good ones are always taken. Free ones are mostly handicapped or extremely small.


39.5 men to every one woman on this forum?  Does that mean it takes ~40 men to equal one woman, or is it just that a good woman is *that* hard to find? ;)

Hmmmm. That would be a good topic to throw open for discussion. At risk of sounding like a brown noser I think that any woman who can put up with some of the stuff we post here (Bobbys boob thread  ;D ;D) must be above the average.....

Since the beginning the ratio M:F has hovered around 40:1

Interestingly, in my local Triumph Riders Assoc, it's more like 10:1.  Maybe it's and old bike/modern bike thing.
