I have a fancy new steam cleaner now, too. I'm so excited. My bathrooms and kitchens will be shiny and sanitary. God. I need some new hobbies or better drugs so I can get back to my slovenly ways.

You probably didn't. She probably just decided to roll her eyes and wander off. There are other ways to win, anyway. Have you checked your bank account?

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

I highly suggest getting one of these:  That's a pretty cool piece of furniture, however I won't be sleeping anywhere other than my own bed. We already had this "discussion" when I got home after the whole I'm-drunk-in-the-Burger-King-parking-lot episode, which was essentially her telling me I was going to sleep on the guest bed and me saying "No." She did ask why I thought I deserved to sleep on my bed and I just said that it's my bed and I'm sleeping in it. She said that she would sleep in the guest bed, then, however she showed up in mine pretty quickly. The thing about not going somewhere else, either a bed or a friend's house, when there's a disagreement is that it doesn't just look bad for the man like normal, it looks bad for the man in court. I really am 80% sure I won that argument today. It's worth mentioning because men hardly ever win. Also Killjoy broke the cork off in a new bottle of scotch. Edit: The Balvenie.

 Not sure what to comment on with the rest of that so I'll just stick to what I know.

Seriously, you can never win an argument with a woman.
You will be on your deathbed and she will tell you how wrong you were about whatever-the-fuck-it-was sixty years ago.

At that point though, you can give her the bird and slip off to oblivion.
And you can win, you just have to want to win, with all that entails. Like being alone. With all the "hur men are dumb, clueless lumps" of the last 20 years, the whole "women act like spoiled children" got buried. Woo!

If we want to be serious for a minute, it is absolute bollocks that women win all arguments. Righ and I have never had a real fight about anything - I meant fights as in angry shouting - but every discussion we've ever had where there needs to be a clear winner, he's won. If there's a disagreement about somewhere we might go or something we want to buy or anything, I give in. ALWAYS.

Anybody can win an argument, it just has to be a winnable argument with provable facts. Arguing about how someone felt at a particular place in time or how an action made someone else feel is not a winnable argument, no matter how much men and women want to believe otherwise. That just becomes a battle over who can feel the best at the end of the argument, an usually it isn't worth it to go for total scorched earth (from either side) over what usually is a very trivial discussion to begin with.

lol. We're talking about wives here! Exactly. Like if a husband and wife start arguing over a date something happened, the amount they tipped the server at dinner, etc, that is a winnable argument since you know when it happened or how much it cost. Arguing over how the waiter at dinner made them feel when he was 5 minutes late getting their order or whether someone was thinking (or not) about particular thing at a moment in time? Unwinnable without resorting to making the other side give up in frustration\anger.

Signe, if you even for the SLIGHTEST MOMENT think you are representative of women, you've lost your mind. But you already knew that. Normal women do not let men win arguments. Really, the only solution is to always let the female think she won. Then and only then can men go back to doing manly things. Like woodchopping and being awesome.

I was at a book store today and saw a book on the bargain table titled something like "How to pretend to care about customer complaints". It had a big sticker on it saying "Staff Pick". I couldn't stop laughing  .

The easy way to never lose an argument with your wife is to not have one. Do what I do, and date other people's wives

I actually won an argument with a 4 year old once. His father was shocked!

not really. For example other than the yard/garage or electronics I always try and stay out of the home decor process. She however always insists on my input, I usually give in once"Honey i'll be happy with whatever you pick out" has progressed to "I really don't give a shit". Anyhoo once I give in to the endless pestering we usually end up getting what I "want" which is why 12 years later I am still hearing about how our living room ended up being entirely brown (travertine tables, brown leather sofa/chair, natural wood entertainment center, brown faux stone lamps, etc..)

 If you think an argument with a female is about facts being correct, you're wrong.

Arguing about how someone felt at a particular place in time or how an action made someone else feel is not a winnable argument There are no other arguments with a women you are romantically involved in besides this one. The longer you argue about ANYTHING WHATSOEVER, the greater the chance whatever you were arguing about will turn into this argument.
