Good one, ahmad. happy.gif

Do we need so many reasons to be happy?

-Nabin-

ye, you men are really lucky happy.gif
there 're more other criteria than what you mentioned
women's life is more difficult

Hi Ahmad, I wonder if the statements you made are based on empirical evidence or just plain hearsay.

Perhaps most of what you wrote were true but would you have us women any other way? wub.gif If this were so then…

-who would carry your child for 9 months and go through a period of morning sickness, mood swings, bloating, back ache, displaced internal organs, medical procedures and the duck walk while still keeping a full-time job;

-who would humor you with tales of being duped by the mechanic and not knowing a bolt from a nut nor about which way a jar should be opened;

-who would teach you the importance of sanitation and good hygiene if you think that the whole world is a toilet, the best of which are in the gas stations and if you bring only one piece of clothing on a five-day trip;

-who would emphasize the value of safety when you substitute grooming implements with a knife;

-who would make you appreciate the importance of change…in color, in hairstyle, in shoes, in names;

- who would hone your talent for perpetual preparedness since you don’t know how we’d react nor what we will say or do from one minute to the next;

-who would show you the finer points of elocution i.e. that a word can be more than two syllables and a sentence more than two words and a conversation more than 30 s;

-and finally, who would still accept and love you for all the dominating, condescending, insensitive or clueless cave men that most men truly are? wink.gif

I rest my case.

a perfect demonstration of the sexes
ahmad lists a bunch of things which make men happy
casandra lists a buch of ways women affect men (ie not a list of things which make women happy on their own)

Well yes, I could’ve delivered a litany of things that make women happy but that would’ve taken the fun out of poking holes at Ahmad’s list which certainly made me happy (petty but still happy). But I can give a partial list yet still using his arguments….Women, complex creatures that we are, would be much happier if we are not:
- payed less for equal work;
- thought to be capable and competent enough to be President
- made to feel guilty by indulging in chocolates;
- labeled as shallow and vain when we change hair styles, own more than 3 pairs of shoes, coordinate colors, remove unwanted hairs;
- categorized as unforgiving and vengeful when someone forgets to invite us to dinner
- treated as helpless and defenseless bec we can’t screw a nut into a bolt (or vice versa laugh.gif ) or open our own jar;
- branded as a fluff head, chatterbox or worse a gossip if our conversations last more than 30 s;
Oh and viewed as aggressive when expressing an opinion or a different point of view smile.gif
And this can go on and on and on….


well enough rambling,
casandra

MEN ARE HAPPY JUST BECAUSE WOMENS ARE PERFECT
