I've seen lots of exceptions for the above.

#3 depends only on the woman (so don't blame it on guys ). People still call my mother by her maiden name even though she's been married for 25 years.

#4 depends on the guy... although I wouldn't use a garage for the purpose you're probably thinking of...

#16 depends on the guy... new shoes usually give me blisters for a week or so, until I break them in.

#17... uhm, ok.

#18... yeah right, I've seen guys talk on phones for friggin hours... even when it's not their woman on the other end!

#20 again depends on the woman. If you want to live with weak arms/wrists, so be it.

#31... depends on if the guy is or has been involved in white collar situations...

#35... I can "do" my nails with my teeth. And frequently do.

Nice list of stereotypes...
