“I could watch The Planet Earth documentary from The Discovery Channel over and over again. It is amazing.”
“Yup, it’s pretty good Sunday afternoon, curl-up-in-bed, viewing.”
“Dude, the filming of the “Birds of Paradise” mating rituals in the Amazon KILLS me. Look at the length that this little guy is going to impress the female bird and get some action! He’s performing a full-on ballet and is puffed up like a tutu. Now THAT is dedication to sexual nookie. It’s really sad it doesn’t work out for him, though.”
“He’s a guy and probably used it it. Most of us are.”
(Insert long-suffering sigh.)
“Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know. Though doubtful due to the fact that I am a million months pregnant and feel like complete suck most of the time, maybe if you did some wild, complex, mating ritual to impress me you would have a better chance of getting laid, who knows?”
“I do that already, baby. It’s called “laundry”.

I think you mean he’s not screwed. hah. Lame, I know.
I love his response btw. Don’t ever let him mention that to Jeff though.
Dude. Send your husband to my house.
I’m turned on by his puffing and strutting.
Plus I have a mountain of laundry that desperately needs to be done.
Your husband does laundry? I’m not sure that mine knows where the machine is, much less how to run it.
Bekah-It will be our secret
RNM: I’m sure he would be more than pleased with this arrangement as I am fairly confident that you are A MILLION TIMES better in bed than I am. ;P
Headless mom: Jonathan is the girl in our relationship in many, many ways. He reloads the dishwasher after I load it and I he hates the way I fold so much he does it. I just kind of suck at it. To the point that I have been banned from doing laundry before. :S
Heee and Awww! Laundry is reasonably complex… ;p
Hah! So funny. I love that clip from Planet Earth. It’s amazing and embarrassing all at once.
LOL! That is a great mating ritual. In our house it is changing poop diapers!
I’d be unimpressed too. He looks like a freak. hahaha
Ha ha! This is my husband’s favorite episode of Planet Earth!
The man makes a solid point. :)
A man doing laundry is soooo sexy, but what gets me every time is when he cleans the toilet. HAWT!
Ha! He’s a keeper for sure.
I would love to see a video of him preening, plucking a towel from the basket, shaking it out to the west and the east, folding it to reveal its plume and manhood, placing it in a pile, and moving on the climatic fitted sheet fold, which he performs without letting linen touch the ground, wherein the female sighs, submits to his prowess and offers herself in surrender.
LOVE Planet Earth.
That’s awesome, totally sounds like something my husband would say. We love the Planet Earth series too. The birds of paradise mating rituals crack me up, how they clear the area and practice their little routines. The girls never really have to try, do they? I think we kind of missed out on that one…
Awww.
You know what’s worse? When the husband thinks “Hot damn, she’s pregnant and I’ll have a *maniac* on my hands. Woohoo!” then, every freaking chronic health issue flares, and you’re on six shots of blood thinners and the LAST thing you want to think about is mating rituals…
Yep, guys-never think that this pregnancy is going to be like the last one was in the bedroom, cuz it won’t.
My husband was SO disappointed when I came home from my last pre-natal appointment with news that we’ve set an induction date. Well, he wasn’t disappointed until that night when he figured out that now that I know I won’t have to deal with false labor for much longer I’m not giving it up like a horny rabbit in the springtime.
He was pretty happy for about 2 weeks when he was getting it as regularly as when we got together (I was 17 when we got together, if that’s any indication…) but now I’m back to my fat, preggo self and just not that into it. LOL.
I think pregnancy is just as much an endurance trial for our men as it can be for us.
Sounds like a good mating ritual to me! (laundry that is). I tell my husband that him cleaning up the kitchen has a similar effect now after two kids that seeing him in his motorcycle jacket did back then.
Oh, that man knows foreplay, woman! Give it UP.
T.
I hope you are accumulating his credit and holding it for, what, a year or so until the new kid can sleep for at least half the night?
That’s okay. Now he’s young, wants it ALL the time, and gets it seldom. Wait. He’ll be older, someday, and want it seldom. And he’ll get it even seldomer. And then, in the worst of ironies, should the opportunity present itself, once he has achieved that certain amount of agedness, IT likely won’t work when he wants it to anyway.
Screwed.
Ha, laundry is supposed to get him laid? Does he know how much you and your body are doing right now just to sustain and bring the new life in to this world?
I think simply doing the laundry is not enough, keep reaching buddy!
