What are the differences between men and women? #1 (permalink) Fri Oct 08, 2004 21:31 pm   What are the differences between men and women?
 

Look at this guys:

SUCCESS:
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

MONEY MANAGEMENT:
A man is a person who will pay two dollars for a one dollar item he wants.
A woman will pay one dollar for a two dollar item that she doesn't want.

HAPPINESS:
To be happy with a man you must understand him a lot and love him a little.
To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.

THE BATTLE:
A woman always has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

What do you think about these?

I completly agree with "a woman have the last word" Cool Cool Cool and i have to add a saying:
The man proposes and the woman ........
(please somebody help me i can't find the last word)

Women prefer prefer to talk about family or friends #2 (permalink) Fri Oct 08, 2004 22:43 pm   Women prefer prefer to talk about family or friends
 

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. Cool
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?

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.
