Tim Quote #2542

Quote from Tim in The Feminine Mistake

Jill: So you agree that Brad shouldn't let Angela do his chores?
Tim: The truth, honey? I think you're making kind of a big deal out of this.
Jill: Learning to treat women as equals is a very big deal.
Tim: The kid's 16-years-old. He's got plenty of time to develop a mature relationship and learn how to play the game.
Jill: "The game."
Tim: I mean, Brad's going to figure out pretty soon that in order to make peace with women, you have to pitch in now and then.
Jill: "To make peace." So that's the only reason that you do anything around here?
Tim: And because I really like it.
Jill: You do not. You're just playing "the game." The important thing is that I help you out.
Jill: "Help me out?"
Tim: Yeah.
Jill: Do you have any idea how demeaning that sounds?
Tim: I used to be a lot better at playing this game.
