Someone was arguing to me the other day that “almost entirely men” buy video game consoles. In his own set of data, he had a significant percentage of married men ages 25-35 as console purchasers.
So let me see … he’s saying that only the men buy the consoles even when they’re married to women, because only men buy consoles, and we circle around infinitely. I pointed out that a $400-$500 purchase is at the very least something a couple will generally agree on together. I generally have had very few problems buying for myself in game stores, but some women of my acquaintance have told me they just send their spouse in for them because they either get ignored or they get hassled in there.
Incidentally, the only tool Mr. Bells has ever bought in our 11 years together is a pipe wrench so large I almost can’t lift it. The power drill is allllll mine.
