LOL My Mother still had a fit when I bought a bike at the age of 45, I had it squirrled away in my sister's garage 200 miles away to the south but she let it slip!
So Mister Daddy, paragon of honesty, have you looked a nother woman with sexual thought since you been married? Yes or no? Did you tell your wife? Yes or no. Enough with the bluster and bravado. What is the truth?
OTOH, when I was a young lad, I did hide motorcycles from my parents lol
A closed friend of mine finished school, got his first job, saved his first money and bought his dreamed motorcycle. Then met a girl, got married and the first thing wife said was that motorbike had to go. The poor man had to hide his bike in a friend's garage. He hid leather pants, Perfecto jacket, gloves and boots in the bottom of a wardrobe until wife found his stash... :eeek: He's divorced now.
Makes you wonder what the attraction was in the first place. Unfortunately there's quite a few women out there who see their men as some sort of DIY project. Hopefully your friend still has his motorcycle. Some things were just never meant to be.
HMMM the "law" seems to be different your side of the atlantic ,as soon as a woman get's their feet under the table over here they see thenselves as your boss in every facet of your life and your personal banker...it's not uncommon over here for a bloke to hand his wages straight to the missus and if he want's any "pocket money" he has to almost beg for some of it back, it is quite pathetic to see grown men reduced to that really.
I don't think it was meant as race, but cultures. There's NO doubt they vary from place to place. Mine's Italian, and trust me, I have my work cut out for me and vice-versa. I'm German, so we're quite the pair lolI ain't ever let myself get into that state.....I have seen it enough in my friends I grew up with, mind you if it did happen to me I would proably be too dim to notice untill it was too late. But then If a certain someone looks over my shoulder at this thread I might be single again by monday.As for race, i don't know how anyone could try putting any labels on any of us lot we are just a bunch of mogrels, myself included.
I don't feel that I'm under anyone's thumb..however..it does seem that some others find a certain fondness in that kinda game.
BTW, in my town, women have such a temper that your marriage is in jeopardy since the very same fateful moment you say "I do" at the altar.
