Want it all their own way all the time.

Want the seat lifted up before we pee, but wont put it up themselves after they have had a pee.... It's their arse touching that seat!
Want between 50%-90% of your money, but will pay 0% of the bill if you go for a meal.
Complain we don't listen....
Say they don't want anything for Christmas/Birthdays, but actually get them nothing, and you wont hear the end of it!
Want to go shopping and not only drag you round, but expect you to carry all the bags too!
Want an honest relationship, but tell them anything but you look gorgeous when they ask at your absolute peril.

It's a good job we are clever enough to work them out.
I find making them think it's their idea whilst praising them for it, and the world is your oyster.

Not if it's a hot flush when if in touching distance the male of the species may end up wearing said seat as a fashion accessory around the neck ;) ;)

Ever sine my local coffee shop converted the toilets to unisex, I must admit to giving more thought to the seat up/down conundrum. I concluded the default is seat down as three of four actions ( numbers 1 and 2 for each sex, which also accounts &or the non-binaries of this world) involves seat down as the start position.

Sorry lads the women win this one

The toilet seat thing is easy - explain to them that the mechanics of the seat make it go down as well as up and then show them how to ease it down nicely.
Never ask a woman what's wrong - she'll say 'nothing' whilst making it totally obvious there is.
No matter what they say about presents - ALWAYS get one because an answer in the negative is just a lie to test you.
Be careful of women of a 'certain age' (my wife for instance) - the body temperature seems to be about 2-3 degrees higher than normal and at this time of year she will happily sit wearing a strappy top and shorts in the house while demanding that the heating is off - it may even involve opening a window.
Try saying 'I was wrong', it does help occasionally.
Don't over-praise her looks - it makes them suspicious.
Under no circumstances say nothing when she has been to the hairdressers - if in doubt assume she has and look surprised when she says she hasn't.
Pre-empting is also good (sometimes) - try taking her a couple of aspirins randomly and when she says she doesn't need them ask if it's bed-time.
Finally, and this comes from years of trying to fathom out something that comes from an alternate universe, beware of 'female arrogance'. This is the one where we don't understand women but admit it, but they also don't understand us but think they do. This single thing is the one that I believe causes the vast majority of problems between men and women (this and women themselves of course).
Have a nice day guys.

I text my wife this afternoon; "Darling, I have had a bad accident at work this morning and fell from a great height. Sarah kindly rushed me to the hospital, but the doctors have said that the damage to my spine is so bad that i may never walk again"

She replied "Who's Sarah?"

Multi-tasking is the main area where women believe they are superior to men. What they really mean is they can do something else while they are talking or more to the point, when in a group they can hold more than one conversation at once.

No. I quoted the wrong person, the person who originally quoted the person I should have quoted, I realized my mistake and whilst thinking it would be ok if left, thought it best to quote the person I should have quoted rather than quoting the person who originally quoted the person I should have quoted.

Happy?

Today whilst discussing, with the missus, about the bathroom that I've been tasked with sorting, along with 2 fences I need to erect and the bedroom I'm also required to do, and as she was berating me with her vast knowledge of the aforementioned tasks, I just said, OK then you sort them, No she said that's just ridiculous that's stuff that men do.
I replied and yes it's women's work to profess to know lots about stuff they've never done.
Worse they haven't the ******** to do.
Not exactly working out for me, this equality.

mine admits to being a single-tasker, and boy is she such! Can't get through at all if she's concentrating. Trick is telling when that is. I've also trained her to give me executive summaries, she can waffle for Belgium. She sometime forgets though, particularly if she's trying to do two things at the same time.

Women have this amazingly talented way of completely blocking a pub bar, I don't know how they do it, but it only takes 5 or 6 of 'em together, all chatting at the same time/ then getting served individually/ then going through the whole drinks menu before deciding on 'half a lager n lime'/ then rooting through their handbag to find every last 1 and 2 pence piece and counting it out veryyy slowlyyy.
