This article is for men. That's right, I'm being sexist. There will be another article somewhere (Translation 101 F) for women...

OK, all you men who are still reading; this is a translation guide so that you can understand what women are saying. Forget the words, learn to recognise the underlying message...

3. Maybe = No
4. We need = I want
5. I am sorry = you'll be sorry
6. We need to talk = I need to complain
7. Sure, go ahead = I don't want you to
