Everything in life has rules.

The following rules apply to effectively managing relationships.

Those who live by the rules, shall profit,

Those who don't....shall perish.


1. The female always makes the rules!
2. Rules are subject to change at any time without prior
notification to the male.
3. NO male is allowed to know the rules!
4. If the female ever suspects that the male knows some or
all of the rules, she MUST change some or all of the rules.
5. The female is NEVER wrong!
6. If the female ever appears to be wrong,it is due to a
misunderstanding caused by something the male said or did
which was wrong!
7. The female may change her mind AT ANY TIME!
8. The male may NEVER change his mind without the express
written consent from the female.
9. The female has the right to become angry or emotionally
upset at any time.
10. IF rules #6 or #9 apply, the male MUST APOLOGIZE!
11. If the female has PMS, all rules are null and void at
her discretion-----See rules 1,2,5, and 7.

The rooster rules the roost, but the hen rules the rooster.
