That women will listen to any other male on learning something new, except their husbands. Like driving a car, playing golf, tennis, computer etc. They will even take instruction from a boyfriend, but a husband, no way.

No, that's because men have an inbuilt unerring sense of direction.

Is that why when men are lost they always say "we're taking the scenic route" and it takes longer to get where we are going? :wah:

Me and my hubby are the complete opposite of this. If I tell him something, he always will ask someone else, usually a complete stranger, just to get the "right answer" which is usually what I've told him in the first place. :mad::-5:-5
