    There's a new lexical trend that drives me nuts. When a woman gets knocked-up people say, "They're pregnant." WTF? Unless he plans to carry a twelve pound weight in his belt then sh!t a football the day the kid is born, she's bearing the burden of pregnancy. His participation involved getting laid. She's forced to abstain from alcohol and deal with all their drinking buddies. We all know how much fun drunks are when you're the only one not drinking. No. They're NOT pregnant. She is.

    Now don't get me wrong. Some guys look like they're pregnant:

    Whatever you deal with when your wife is pregnant doesn't compare with what she's dealing with physically and emotionally. She's pregnant you're just suffering some side effects. Saying "We're pregnant" is just trying to get the man involved and make him an equal part of the process when in fact she is doing all of the work and he just has to be there for support. And yes, I have a 2 year old and do understand. I would have never traded places with my wife. Watching her go through what she did only reinforces my belief that men, in fact, are the weaker sex.

    From Rocket Man's comments, I conclude that he's actually in a lesbian relationship. That's the only possible way they can both be pregnant.

    Yup,.. Mrs. DD had two cesarians. I've had two abdominal operations for other things... Her average recovery time before becoming useful again was about 4 days... mine was about 4 weeks.

    My wife had a baby 17 months ago. There is no way I was pregnant too.

    now if you want to think in terms of money then yeah I had a baby too. It also depends on the amount you help your wife with diaper changing, bottle feeding, etc. But during the actual pregnancy, the woman has ALL the fun. The men have the side affects.

    Jeffey Guy, when I requested a Blog off the beaten path, I never imagined a bunch of men conversing about pregnancies.

    Why Men Are Just Happier People -

    What do you expect from such simple creatures? Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can be president. You can never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. You can wear NO T-shirt to a water park. Car mechanics tell you the truth. The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this one is just too icky. You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same Work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress $5000. Tux rental -- $100. People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet. One mood -- all the time. Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about tanks. A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase. You can open all your own jars. You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness. If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend. Your Underwear is $8.95 for three-pack. Three pairs of shoes are more than Enough. You almost never have strap problems in public. You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes. Everything on your face stays its Original color. The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades. You only have to shave your face and neck. You can play with toys all your Life. Your belly usually hides your big hips. One wallet and one pair of shoes one color for all seasons. You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look. You can "do" your Nails with a pocketknife. You have freedom of choice concerning growing A mustache. You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes. No wonder men are happier!
