The Husband's Bill of Rights

While I understand that men aren’t asking for the world, “The Husband's Bill of Rights” on MSN.com is a nice example of what men claim they need to make their marriage a happy one:

  • Amendment I
    We have the right to go out with our friends at least once a month.
  • Amendment II
    We reserve the right to dislike your friend's husbands.
  • Amendment III
    We have the right to have a few things of ours in the house.
  • Amendment IV
    We have the right not to be scolded by you.
  • Amendment V
    We have the right to teach our sons how to burp and fart.
  • Amendment VI
    We have the right to teach our children how to defend themselves.
  • Amendment VII
    We have the right to as much reading material in the bathroom as we need.
  • Amendment VIII
    We have the right to watch the big game.
  • Amendment IX
    We have the right to the remote when we're on the couch.
  • Amendment X
    We have the right to still use chivalry.

I think I can work with this list. My only stipulation is that you have to share the remote sometimes, sorry boys! If you have a problem with any of these rules, we want to hear about it!
