I am constantly reminding Mr.GorgeousFluffpot of birthdays, including my own. I always have to find his keys which are often in his pocket. Are men's brains like Gouda cheese, with great holes in them that information falls out of?

SNORE.
Sexist.
He can't remember because he doesn't think about them the same way as you do and he knows you'll nag him about it. If his life or his money depended on it he'd remember it.
I always know where my keys and other items are because I don't have a voluminous pocket book. It's my experience that women lose their keys and other important belongings far more often than men.
Every morning i have to stand behind women in the subway turnstile for the women who suddenly discover, as they're going through the turnstile, "Hey, I need some form of payment for this strange machine". At that point they pull up the giant bag, sit it on the turnstile, and start digging for their metrocard.
You'd think after living someplace for forty years they would have the pattern worked out. I see men go through the turnstile quickly. they pull that metrocard out of their pocket or wallet like a gun out of a holster, swipe, and away it goes.

Honestly, Sainty, I don't get it, really. Life is ridiculous half of the time, but I am ridiculous the other half. And if I stop to think about any situation, I feel ridiculous. In the end, I'm not sure what to make of it all. I can never say that there is a right path for life or a wrong one, but there isn't really a wrong one, either. So, I suppose that there might be some sort of personal value in life that I am missing. Maybe I am looking at a bigger picture than what really matters. Maybe I am looking too small, still. But, those moments of pure laughter feel amazing, and I love those. So I understand what you are saying. But sadly, since I understand it, I cannot really answer the reasoning behind it- if that makes any sense. But like life, it probably is just plain old ridiculous! =)

We run the world. And still you complain about mundane things.
#1. I don't remember your birthday because you'll just have another one next year. Whoop-dee-freakin-doo
#2. My keys will find themselves if I get a homing device from you this Chrismas.
#3. Women are more like Gouda Cheese than men. They are full of holes you can't touch unless you remember their birthday

Men focus on important stuff its the way there brain works. They dont' think remembering things like birthdays or even keys are an issue. Women's brains work so that we do findand remember things.. its a balance issue :)

Uh, Gouda doesn't usually have holes, that is Gueyere (or swiss). And men don't remember things like that because that is our purpose here on earth as women, we were made as "man's helper" out of his rib bone to help him. His mother helped him first and now we help him. Either that or he is in the early stages of alzhiemers, and in that case get him to a dr immediately and quit eating so much out of aluminum cans!

It's like anything else---it depends on the person you expect to remember things. If they're not good with numbers, no amount of demands on your part will make them remember. Dates are numbers.
Some people have better memories than others, regardless of gender. And all this Adam and Eve crap I hear is absurd. Put down the Bible and get a good science text.

I take it you are a non Blondie feminist that likes to try and ridicule the superior sex of this planet. Sorry dumpling but you are just wasting your time. We men know what your game is and we are not going to play it anymore. You loose. End of Game. Now trot off into the kitchen and get the tea ready there's a good pet. Also could you bring me some fresh tea in a clean cup. Thanks Puppet.

memory in both men and women is individual.my husband remembers birthdays of family and friends,and all pertinant anniversaries of ours,including our first date.as for keys,get him a key hanger and put it up by the front door,make him hang his keys on it every night till it becomes a habit.if u always put them in the same place after use,u'll never lose them.i do this myself and have helped several friends do it.my mom was the worst ewith keys,she lost them EVERY DAY of my childhood,i vowed when i grew up,i'd never drive my family crazy by a constant mad search for keys or anything else-and i havent. ps-losing keys doesnt mean u have altzheimers.forgetting what keys are used for,means u probably do.

Men are like fine wine. They all start out like grapes, and women stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something they want to have dinner with. Under this process we loose the ability to remember anything.

I have never, ever lost my keys and nor have I ever forgotten a birthday, So that b*ggers up your theory, doesn't it?
Update, 27/12, four days after question:
I have just been called by my mother, who has locked herself out. And I forgot my nephew's birthday last week! This is absolutely true, I apologise profusely!
