I just don't get it.........

Comment Published at 02:1702:1710 comments10 comments36 Visits36 VisitsReport

To night I was showing my partner around Minti as he wanted to have a look.  He is so sceptical..  I couldn't beleive it.   He saw that there were some blokes on here and he said "why are they on a mother and baby website?"  So I had to explain that minti was for parents not just mothers etc...  So he got all mucho and started saying that they are not real men etc..(I wont go into what he actually said) LOL.  I had a right go at him.  and I couldn't convince him other wise. 

I just don't get it.. Why do men have to get all mucho and think that men should not be on minti and show there feelings, isn't this what minti is for......??????

Re: I just don't get it.........
Hi
My hubby is a first time dad struggling raising 2 teenagers and a baby
He is often on Minti more than me reading stuff and learning what to do and sometimes says gee our kids are pretty good aren't they lol. 
He is amazed at what babies do.  Each day is new to him. 
He likes reading what i type and i get mad and he has his own minti page but he is on mine more than his. 
He is a stay at home dad taking care of us all.  He even gets to learn that i am nuts lol...just like a lot of the other people on here.  Says we are a normal family then lol
Tell your hubby to stop being a stalewart and come talk to other mums and dads and he might learn something lol
Luv Deb

LOL.  I'm trying to convince mine to join.  He keeps asking if he would be accepted on here! lol.  Ah, he's the one who gave me the link in the first place.

The male population on Minti is growing, which is really good as they deserve to have support too!  You could always tell him that he could offer some insight of a real man for the not so real men to see! lol.

Maybe someone needs to start a group that is strictly for the men! lol   Then they can gripe about how we are pushing them to be here!  I'm not running it though!

LOL - Stephen wanted to join, I said no no, you keep on your technical sites, and keep me operating with maximum efficiency, and get that VOIP working properly etc...

He came to my friend's mother's group (which I crashed for the day), and they said - no, it is a parent's group.  Does your hubby dislike all gender bending?  i.e. Maybe he doesn't like girls doing 'boys stuff?'

Don't worry, now that he knows about us - he will probably sneak a peek now and then LOL

Well i have to say, my hubby likes showing his knee's off to all the ladies, hehe! But honestly he thinks it is great that thousands of parents can get together, to help each other.

Re: I just don't get it.........
Because they only use a touch of their brain, my hubby mocks minti, he says its an excuse for gossiping woman!!!!  I have said to him over and over, if you got on here and had a look you might actually learn something lol  Everytime he complains about something the kids are doing like they are alien children or something, I say the same thing over and over, go on minti and read all the thousands of stories and you will see kids are the same all over the world..... but nope he still does not get it...... MEN lol

Gossip us women??  Never,  well maybe sometimes but only in a good way.  I always get the "babies do that" comment over and over again.  We have 2 computers so I'm always sending him links to some sort of minti advice. 

A little bit of there brain is what they always use and a little bit of...............
