I see no diffrent answer , your last 10 questions about your husband say the same thing, He simply seem to have no interest or time about you, sound to me give 20 dollars is fast easy and quick and not much trouble for him. Whatever can make it fast and over easy. I wonder he is like this on everything about you ?

Depending on the ages and how many kids there are, he could simply be trying to save some extra $$ on the fuel in the car, the time you spend frazzling yourself, and simply put= the time you're not catering to HIM.

Yeah, it's pretty much like that.

The physical brains are different, so indeed, the thinking within those brains will be as well. Men have larger brains than women; though women have more surface area (folds in the brain). Women also have smaller brains than men, however women have a larger hypothalumus than men which has been determined to aid in retrieving information nessasary through BOTH nemispheres of the brain. This makes the cognitive mind faster and more efficient in women. The downside to this is that information is retrived so quickly that mistakes are made more often than the male brains. This is case in point "It's a woman's right to change her mind" (or rather, she made the wrong choice first and upon actual reflection, found the better choice.)

Yeah he is a dumb@ss if you ask me. Don't wrap the gifts?!! I remember Christmas and I really enjoyed unwrapping the gift's I got. It was fun because you never knew what it was and the unwrapping was really one of the funniest parts. It was the time when you got to open up your gift and see what it was, man that was fun!! Which goes to your second question on money. Now I like money just as much as the next guy, maybe more!! Yet, as a child I wanted gifts and lots of them!! (yeah I was spoiled) =) It's fun and exciting to see a box or a gift bag with your name on it. You start to wonder what's in it. It builds the excitement of Christmas and it's so much fun to now watch my little nephews and nieces opening up their gifts, the look on their faces is wonderful as they are opening them up. One of the best parts is when they open up a gift that they have been wanting and you see their eyes get big and the look on their faces is so cute!!! Money, no. Money is good if your 16 or older but even then you want to have at lest one gift under the tree. Money for someone who is younger than 16 is really not a good gift at all. I mean one can not play with money if your 5 years old, nor do you care that you have a piece of paper with green and black writing on it. Money is good in a sweet card for a good friend or an adult family member that you did not know what they would like. As a gift for a child, um,....NO. Now nothing is wrong with giving them a little money, but a gift is a must (and it needs to be wrapped) Oh and since he likes $20 so much why don’t you get a shoe box and put a $20 bill in it and give that to him for his gift! lol. No I am sorry I think your husband is way off base with this one. Children should have a few gifts under the tree for them to open and play with. Even as an adult when someone gives me a gift card or money I think well, the person didn't think enough of me to go out and buy anything, so they gave me money. Hey I like it don't get me wrong, but a gift is more special. Oh, and $20 what is he wanting then to buy with that? I mean a CD is $20 now and it would be a lot better to go buy the CD that they want and wrap it up. I mean at lest then they have a gift they can open and they will have something they like and want, not just a 20 dollar bill. You see what I mean? =)

Yeah sure, men and women both think differently but everyone is pretty different from each other even if they are of the same gender. Your husband just sounds like he doesn't get much joy out of life and doesn't care to give anyone else any. I read that a man's brain has a harder time processing what he is feeling compared to women. Regardless, that is no excuse for someone to pawn off a good memory for $20 bucks a pop because he doesn't feel like fooling with it. I hope he comes to his senses.

Men and women do think differently. If there were only men, we would still be living in caves. "What's wrong with a dirt floor? It's great, you never have to clean it. It's always dirty. What's wrong with eating on banana leaves? They are a nice shade of green and you don't have to wash them."

However, if there where only women, there would be no money to build factories or anything like that. They would have spent all the money 6 months before they made it.

God must have known what he was doing when he created both genders. We just have to learn to appreciate differences in other people.

Some of the women had good suggestions.

Just tell him You will give T/them the wrapped presents AND the money. Tell him to double the money for each C/child also.
Next time he wants You in the sack, well, hand him a wrapped bottle of baby oil as present and tell him to leave You alone!

that is because we are not the same. Women remember birthdays, men remember when baseball season starts. Women call their Mom often, men forget to call home. Women see beaches and cry, men go to the beach to see the women. All I can say is that men and women never see the same things the same way.

We always think different than men and what can you buy for only $20 these days?

I remember the birthday of my first girlfriend, and I haven't seen her in over a quarter of a century.

So, which men are you talking about?

Well with money they can buy what they want, but I think it's nice to give gifts.
