Man Caves

So I have this conversation with a woman about how her daughter's husband has carved himself out an amazing Man Cave.

What I don't understand is why would a man relegate himself to a small portion of the dwelling he's shelling out money for every 30 days? The entire house should be his cave. She disagreed with me.

Say wha? The entire house is an 'ours' in most cases. You're free to try arguing the other half of the couple is bringing nothing of value to the table, but good luck to you on that.

And what is a Man Cave? A television and a stereo? I mean, he can't bring any women up in there (which to be fair, would require a cave).

I'd call it a Room of No Compromise. Barcalounger(s), check. Mini fridge full of cold beverage, check. Lifesize bobblehead of of My Guy from My Team? If I wanna.

The majority of the rest of the house is a negotiation. I'd burn water trying to boil it, but she's got chef mojo? Fine, gourmet kitchen for her needs, and maybe I get the John Deere of washer/dryers to ease taking on laundry duty as penance for being a kitchen hazard. Numbers and finance give her a headache? I get a tricked out home office, she gets a Home Depot credit card and a workshop for all those years she paid attention when she helped her dad around the house.

We both get a 70" big screen for the living room.

So forth and so on.
