1) too dirty (I wash every day and stay quite clean)
2) too cold (solved by the proper clothes and sleeping bag)
4) "bathroom" chores (I prefer the woods - can pee anytime I want and do not have to wait in line!)
5) boring (not if you plan enough time to explore, bring a good book or have an entertaining backpack partner)
6) hard (women who spend 2 hours a day at the gym still say this)
7) too scarey (those of us who grew up running in the woods as kids do not feel this way)
9) no shopping malls (well, yes, that is true)
10) too wet, lousy weather (a lot of areas have delightful weather)
11) bugs (I get more bugs in my garden)
I think that pretty much covers it for my better half. I'd love for her to come out
with me, but It's not to be. I grew up hunting and fishing and running around in the
sticks - she didn't. We have our own seperate interests and that's fine. After 19 years,
I ain't gonna try to change her... Of course we men are always malleable and can
be taught new things, so I don't undertstand the intractableness of the female of the species <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
