But of course most men won't admit it..

It all makes sense now. Now I know what to expect in my married life and how to conquer the male species!

I'd like to provide my own definitions for some of these:

"IT'S A GUY THING"
Translated: The context is almost certainly inappropriate in the presence of a woman, or anyone outside of the group of friends we tell dead baby jokes to.

"CAN I HELP WITH DINNER?"
Translated: Let me show you why you are the one that's always cooking, and reaffirm that fact.

"IT WOULD TAKE TOO LONG TO EXPLAIN"
no translation, just words of caution: don't say this unless you intend to imply they are too dumb or slow to understand. Trust me, that is the message that comes across. Even easier to just say you don't know, or are too stupid yourself to understand.

"I CAN'T FIND IT."
Translated: Where the !)$& did you put it THIS time?
