Is Your Man High Maintenance?
Throwing a fit when things don't go his way.
Wanting his partner to pick up his phone calls within a certain number of rings and demanding an immediate reply to his text message or email.
Needing to be told "I love you" several times a day.
Showing up to places fashionably late.
Monopolizing the bathroom.
Changing his outfit several times a day and
refusing to wear clothes that aren't designer brands.
Worrying about how he looks, constantly gazing at himself in the mirror, and primping for long periods of time.
Avoiding activities that make him sweaty or dirty.
Shunning public transportation and refusing to walk anywhere.
Styling his hair before leaving the house.
Needing a certain amount of kisses (that includes on the end of a text message or email).
Insisting upon living in a spotless home.
Only eating at fancy restaurants, drinking fine wine, or staying in 4-or 5-star hotels.
Refusing to do outdoor activities such as camping.
Drinking only bottled water.
Asking for a present at least once a week.
Pouting.

The question should be... Is your man a metrosexual.

Yup, I'd say either gay or a metro....

Yeah. That sounds more like something your gay lover would complain about. Although if you are "that guy", I can see why your wife might complain. She probably gets enough of that sort of behavior from the chicks she hangs out with.
I was a little worried at the beginning with this one:
Throwing a fit when things don't go his way.
I have been known to be a bit heated when stupid happens and I am short on time. Other than that, I am pretty close to the polar opposite of just about the entire list. [facepalm]
Pretty sure I can put check marks on all of those... Oh this wasn't about women we've dated?

[ROFL1] Sounds like you need to start dating redneck girls!
Seriously, like others have said, this list sounds like how to tell if a man is metro and/or gay... What kind of man is afraid to get dirty? Damn, now I can't find it... I saw a picture yesterday of a jeep going through a mud pit and it said "You paid money to get a mud bath at a spa? How cute." And any man that doesn't camp, I don't even wanna know. I mean, who doesn't like camping!?

Only time I pout when I don't get what I want is when it has to do with the bedroom.

Some of these she wishes I would do;
Throwing a fit when things don't go his way. Even though I do care about things she probably might like if I showed I do..
Wanting his partner to pick up his phone calls within a certain number of rings and demanding an immediate reply to his text message or email.
I do not call text with out a purpose..
Needing to be told "I love you" several times a day.
Rarely do we do this at all.
Showing up to places fashionably late.
I really do not even know what this means.
Monopolizing the bathroom. Shower 2 min... teeth 1 min... usually another shower 2 min... teeth 1 min.. Constantly asked how I could be clean enough..
Changing his outfit several times a day and
refusing to wear clothes that aren't designer brands. Always compains I wear the same thing everyday..
Worrying about how he looks, constantly gazing at himself in the mirror, and primping for long periods of time. See Monopolizing the bathroom
Avoiding activities that make him sweaty or dirty. I am always dirth but dont ever really sweat.
Shunning public transportation and refusing to walk anywhere. Take the dam bus every day to work because truck has been stolen twice..
Styling his hair before leaving the house. I have a 1/4" of hair on top
Needing a certain amount of kisses (that includes on the end of a text message or email). Yeah right, Whatever
Insisting upon living in a spotless home.
I like the house clean, however I do half
Only eating at fancy restaurants, drinking fine wine, or staying in 4-or 5-star hotels.
I hate nasty hotels, drink beer, only require some type of animal on a plate
Refusing to do outdoor activities such as camping. All I think about
Drinking only bottled water. I only drink beer, milk
Asking for a present at least once a week.
I have never asked for a gift, they do not know how to shop for the shit I want
Pouting. Pouting subtracts time drinking beer
From my wife...she told me thank you for not being one of these guys!
Sounds more like a high school girl. Heck if I was that way, my wife would not have married me...if she was that way, I would not have married her. There are three or four that apply to my wife...
When things don't go his way, a man changes the scenery, fires someone or drinks a beer.
A man answers a text when he is ready...why should she be any different?
A man wants his woman to cook a good meal, tell him she is proud of him, ask him to pull over on the side of the road for sex, that's plenty of love right there.
Late is lazy.
Pinch it off and get back to work.
Jeans and a T-shirt...much better
Men are ugly, get over it and be glad you got a decent woman!
Dirty is the bomb, especially mud and...
Okay, I got a truck, why would I ride a bus?
Ain't got no hair style except short.
Sex 2 or 3 times a week is fine, if you want to kiss then too, great!
Men are messy.
Fancy is expensive and does not taste better, plus there are no ball games on in the fancy places.
If you don't go camping, how can you chase her around necked in the woods? Stupid!
Beer from the tap is fine.
If we get the sex 2 or 3 times a week, why would we ask for a present?
Never pout, it is girly!
Did your wife get that list from hickenlooper's wife?

Well, to a certain extent I suppose I fall under the "Avoiding activities that make..." but that's pure laziness, not unwillingness to do it :P lol

I don't even remember the last time I used public transportation.
Throwing a fit when things don't go his way. -- only when dragged to a romantic comedy
Showing up to places fashionably late. -- only when it's her mom's parties. :-)
Shunning public transportation and refusing to walk anywhere. -- I'd rather walk than use public transport - particularly in Denver.
Asking for a present at least once a week. define "present". :-)
Pouting -- see #1
The question should be... Is your man a metrosexual.
For the win!

i would recommend redneck girls that ride horses, their practice in the saddle always doubles for something else...

If you're a dude, and use a loofa (sp?) that may just mean that your wife does all the shopping.
If you're a dude and you bought the loofa, then you're a metro.
Yeah, that's what I'll keep telling myself.

Are you sure this isn't about women being high maintenance? Might as well add, never talks about women and refers to a lot of "friends" that nobody has met. Classic closet homo traits.
