Just my 2 cents:  Women are the most wiley and dangerous trophys you will ever hunt. Think about it. They are directly responsable for civilization and all it's woes.We (men) were tricked into building EVERYTHING by them...just so we would have a safe place to stash them. If it were left to us (men) we (-all of us) WOULD STILL BE CAMPING! And look at all the stuff we invented to make them happy: appliances,carpeting,cars,planes freeways...all of it! Don't get me wrong- they are neat and i love mine...but i never, NEVER forget to pay attention because i know if i don't she will figure out ANOTHER reason for me to work my ass off for HER happiness!

Don't forget lasers! We invented lasers so they can have laser hair removal

Male chauvinism aside, there are plenty of guys out there who are clueless about lasers and can't for the life of them understand why anyone would want to own one....it isn't really a "woman' problem, its a people problem. If I had a husband it's highly possible he'd hate my lasers, and find them to be a waste of money. I've met men before who don't get the "laser thing" at all.....

But, I'm not married and I rent out the basement in my mom's house. My mother can't understand what all the fuss is about lasers, why someone would want one and why anyone would have one that can burn stuff. One time she asked me if I was trying to become a pyromaniac because I like torching things with my CO2 laser. That totally misses the point. Anyone can strike a match, but it's very different if you are lighting that match with a high-powered laser!

Then again, some of the TV shows she watches and books she reads would bore me to tears.....you know what they say - "different strokes for different folks"!

Wait... :-? You're a woman? Or are you THE, cause it's fine if you're THE, I don't mean that in a bad way : (yea I bet everybody knows what "THE" means, wrote it just like that so the filter wouldn't have the joy of changing it haha)

i think he meant it in a figurative way

I don't think so. That was pretty straightforward lol.

uhhhhhhh :-?

Now guys... Shreken has a good point. Not "getting" lasers is really not a sex-based issue. Some people are just naturally curious about technical things. My dad was a master watchmaker and my mother's a biochemist, so I grew up über-curious about everything. Others in less stimulating households might not be so lucky. My mom thinks lasers are fantastic, but my wife, not so much.

That being said, my wife is a financial genius and more than my equal in many ways. That's why I married her. We share a passion for the same sports and lifestyles but still have our own unique interests on the side. IMHO, the best partner is one who has some attributes you really wish that you had. That way when you marry you become greater than the sum of your parts. You both bring different skills to the table and are stronger together in an equitable, mutually respectful relationship. It took me many, many years to finally find a woman like that. I love her dearly and actually do value her opinion (despite appearances).

So, back to the original topic, BALANCE is what's important here. We all have needs, men and women alike, so when lasers, or shopping, or cars, or PS3s start to take up so much time in our lives that our families feel neglected, it's time to step back and ask whether we aren't actually getting a bit obsessed with our hobbies. Marriage isn't easy. It takes constant work to keep it running smoothly, just like life in general. (The concept of entropy applies here, metaphorically of course) But when it works, it beats being single any day.

Anyway, I'm no Dr. Phil... go buy a self-help book if you can't figure it out... I'm just rambling 'cause I can't sleep.

P.S. c0ld, we should probably move this up to the "General" section.

My girlfriend is indifferent to my laser hobby, :-/ ; Differently my mother was scared until I completely succeed in healing my angiomas on the skin with my green laser ;D ;D ...from that moment she want use this technology to beauty concerning questions

There aren't many women browsing these forums I can tell you that ;D But you can get pass the censors by putting BB code tags in the words like this (without the *):
g[*b][*/b]ay. So now I can write gay.

I know I can write gAy in so many way(s). But I wanted it censored ;D

It's not what you're thinking, guys : ....I said husband because I'm a woman. Yes, believe it - or not (as in Ripley's) - there are women who collect lasers and are into lasers. I can imagine it would be rather unfortunate to have a spouse who isn't into lasers or actually disparages the hobby.
