Do men PMS????
Believe it or not, I had never heard of the term PMS before I moved to this country. It might be based on the fact that I do not "suffer" under this syndrome, neither does anyone I know, maybe it is based that in Germany or Iran noone ever talked about this.
Well, anyways, when I heard the term I remembered it, at some points I mixed it up with the term PMI :), which as we all know is a Pre- Mortgage-Insurance!!!
Now, in this country EVERY woman I got to know was at least once a month talking about PMSing.
As mentioned, I do not have this syndrome, but.... I think my husband does! So do husbands of some of my friends. Recently I was sitting with two very dear friends in a cafe and we noticed that. No, no, this is not a cultural nor age thing. One of the husbands is Iranian, one is South-Korean, and one is USAmerican. They are all in different age groups and have different jobs. The only denumeriator is: MEN. O.K., I know from statistics that a sample group needs at least 30 samples, but well, we cheat a little and take only these 3.
And yes, they all PMS. Actually not monthly, but daily. Every day mine finds something that went wrong. My grandmother always used to say: "Be patient with men."But you now what? I think since we women started emancipating ourselves, we stopped beeing too patient. For nearly 15 years, I always leave him alone when he comes home, don't complain about things, and try to be a little a like a "housewife of the 1950s ", well, those who know me will fall laughing from the chairs. Yes, me as a housewife! Very funny!!! But you know, recently, actually within the past year, my patience is hanging on a very thin string. I wish my husband did not know that I do not PMS, and that he would treat me with the same patience I treated him daily for the past 15 years. Now you do the maths.
To my husband: Darling, now you be patient, smile and be like a man from the new millenium.

another episode of male bashing. women have got to learn to fix their own problems without using the men as an excuse for every issue.
