Hey, if I shit my pants, then that gives me a valid reason to get out of the stupid fucking engagement she has us going to anyway. So fuck it, i'll let her drive.

I have roadracing motorcycles, raced dirt track stock cars, played almost every stick and ball sport but the most courage I ever had to muster was the day I rode on the pillion while my wife test rode my bike. It was her 2nd time on a bike. I was white as a ghost.

#9: Yes. My mom, sister, and pretty much any other girl I have ridden in a car with scares the shit out of me. Maybe its trust from riding with other girls who really were bad. I don't know, but I don't like it.

In reference to #9... I make Cutty drive anywhere we are going but that is just as, if not, scarier that my driving. For example we were on the way to his aunt and uncles for christmas and he decided the ditch was the good way to get there. Scared the bajesus out of me......

I think it's pretty much 50/50 on the scariness.....

Most women scare the crap out of me when they drive. I would think about 90%....

The real question is, why not get your SO some lessons to increase the trust factor? I mean, the others on the road you simply need to work better at dodging, but with your SO one would think you can communicate. Or, is that where the couch comes into play again?

Most of those seem true.

Seriously? Is this one true?
It depends on the girl. In my experience a woman that can drive a manual transmission is a much better driver than those who cannot.
My husband will hand over the keys to his vette just about any time I ask...he trusts my mad skillz. I asked him once if he would let me drive his car if I was a less capable driver...he said NO!

The truth is, its not the the jeans that make your ass look fat, it's your fat ass that makes your ass look fat. If you have to ask, then you already know the answer.....
IMO a lot of women ask this because a lot of woman are insecure and need some postitive feedback. While I have my own body image struggles I know that my husband tells me the truth when I ask about something I am wearing...because I want him to. The reason I know he tells me the truth is because of his negative responses...he does not usually sugar coat things.
