Hi Witch,
You've brought up a topic I hope a lot of people (female and male) will be interested in. I think the statements you have quoted are very funny and contain a fair amount of truth. There are quite some differences between both sexes and they always are a source of inspiration for story writers, film makers and sometimes even spouses. Women prefer prefer to talk about family or friends over a cup of coffee because they like sharing personal things whereas men like to do a lot of public talk about politics and business. They want to capture and impress their listeners. Any ideas why this is so?

Hi Witch,
Many thaks for sharing very interesting information about the differences between men and women. :wink: With a great sense of humour!!
I admit, as one female, that most of the statements about females are quite true. 8) Especially;

Yes, if a man wants to say something soon after the argument, he should prepare for next serious talk which is coming up so soon!! ....Or most of the time the argument loses its way where to go and ends up with unexpected results for the man. Poor thing.

Hmmm... but some women also enjoy the same thing as most of men do. We femals just enjoy talking about everything. What do you think?
:wink: |

I completely agree with this. Well you all know the saying "ladies first" right? That means in any way, we have to give way to the females. Even in an argument, we will never win. We have to give way.... otherwise they will say that we are big bullies.
Another scenerio.... (This is somewhat, rude.) Mary- John come on, fight me! I bet I can kick your ass! John- Okay okay, I give up. You win. John- *thinks* Oh my god I have never felt so humiliated.
(You can be arrested for picking a fight with a women you know?) :wink: |
