Things NOT To Say To Your Wife (or any female in your life for that matter)

Inspired by real life situations in my house:
(an on going compilation)

If you happen to be a little more on the black and white side or just lack a verbal filter, I implore you to take a few of these tips and put them in your back pocket for a happier life.  Successfully talking to any female in your life depends heavily upon your choice of words and your tone of voice. When in doubt, sandwich your statement in compliments and use a happy tone, raising your intonation towards the end of the question. If you are still receiving adverse reactions, practice saying less. 

1. Is that what you're wearing?
2. Is your make up supposed to look like that?
3. Why is the house always a mess?
4. What is for dinner? Is it something unconventional?
5. What is that smell? (sniffs in your direction)
6. Who keeps doing "insert annoying act" (when you are the only two adults in the house)
7. Why do you like terrible shows? 
8. Why do you like terrible music? (or any variation thereof)
9. Your family is crazy.
10. You look crazy and homeless right now. 

This is not an exhaustive list and should only be used as a reference. Every female is different and will have different expectations.  

*Note to women: These comments typically do not come from a place of malice but from sheer ignorance. 

Also I love my man!
