Title: What if Women Ran the World??? Post by: Mr. 5020 on August 21, 2003, 09:42:17 AM What would it be like if women ran the world?
1) There would be no need for a United Nations....because a weekly 'girls night out' among the nation's representatives would solve the problems; 2) There would be no "on the brink of war", 'cause we could fix it with a phone call before it got too serious; 3) There would be no "mine is bigger than yours is" because bigger isn't always better. but only WE have figured that out; 4) There would be no need for need for "humanitarian reform" because we would have already seen to it that everyone had what they needed...and 5) the World Health Organization would be a thing of the past because chicken soup would be the order of the day 6) The church you went to wouldn't matter so long as your underwear was clean when you left the house. But men are happier...here's why: Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. Car mechanics tell you the truth. You never have to drive to another gas station because this one's just too icky. Same work, more pay (but we're workin' on this one) Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress - $5000; tux rental - $100. People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them. The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet. One mood, ALL the time. Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about tanks. A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase. You can open all your own jars. You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness. If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend. Your underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack. Everything on your face stays its original color. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. You almost never have strap problems in public. You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes. The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades. You don't have to shave below your neck. One wallet and one pair of shoes, one color, all seasons. You can "do" your nails with a pocketknife. You have freedom of choice concerning growing a mustache. In fact, you can hide anything you don't like about your face from the nose down with a good beard. (This hides a double chin real well too) You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives, on December 24, in 45 minutes.

How do you know they don't :)Title: Re:What if Women Ran the World??? Post by: Symphony on August 22, 2003, 11:13:38 PM That's what I was going to say. An old Dean Martin/Jerry Lewis film about the army, depicts behind the scenes the officer's wives as practically running the base. And that was in 1950. ;D On the other hand, I'm not sure 'bout this thread. I've been around men who make fun of women or, at least, seemed sometimes "cynical". Making fun is precarious here, I think. In any event, I was thinking this thread might be better under For Men Only. Title: Re:What if Women Ran the World???

Title: Re:What if Women Ran the World??? Post by: Mr. 5020 on August 23, 2003, 12:37:12 PM Now now Reba, settle down.
2 things: 1) this was not meant to be pro-men or sexist at all. In fact, it was written by a female. 2) i'm sure I had a second point but I forgot. :-[ Title: Re:What if Women Ran the World??? Post by: Symphony on August 23, 2003, 04:46:24 PM But men are happier...here's why: The garage is all yours. ;D Wedding dress - $5000; tux rental - $100. ;D (But this one isn't really fair: I doubt if it costs $5000 to RENT one...) One mood, ALL the time. (This one isn't fair at all. Men can be VERY moody.) You can open all your own jars.(Nah. Women are the "graceful" sex. They don't HAVE to know 'bout this one--at least ideally.) You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness. Yes, this one's really true. Women frequently go long periods with getting no encouragement at all. I will have to come back. Title: Re:What if Women Ran the World??? Post by: Hitch on August 24, 2003, 10:52:07 PM Now that takes some female logic...
Dad pays $100 for a Tux rental.. not bad... Dad pays $5000 for a wedding dress... What escapes me is the supposed savings??? Title: Re:What if Women Ran the World??? Post by: Sapphire W34P0N on August 24, 2003, 11:09:27 PM If women ran the world, our bathrooms would always be clean and we'd always have hot dinners.

Title: Re:What if Women Ran the World??? Post by: Symphony on August 25, 2003, 08:59:37 AM Hitch: "...female logic..." Huh?? ;D Title: Re:What if Women Ran the World??? Post by: sincereheart on August 25, 2003, 04:20:04 PM Yeah Symphony, "female logic" is an oxymoron~ Much like an "intelligent male" :P

Post by: efil4zaggin on August 26, 2003, 01:53:02 PM Indeed, girls bathrooms are the worst to clean up.
Title: Re:What if Women Ran the World??? Post by: Tibby on August 26, 2003, 04:07:20 PM If women run the world they would go to work in there cubical from 9-5, meanwhile...
men would stay home (and make all sports played between the hours of 9:30 and 4:30, of course), there would be maids (children) in ever home, and a piping hot meal (pizza) in the table every night. Women would complain about how the Husban squanders all her money on beer, sports gear, cars, boats, bikes, TVs, and PS2. Women would look at men like we are porterhouse steaks, and women would be come of the “mack’n” Also, instead of daddy’s being cruel to boys dating there daughters, Momma’s would be cruel to girls dating there sons. Personal, I'd LOVE to trade palces. Let the women deal with all the junk, while guys Just relax for a change. And if a Steven B. Anthony tries to “liberate” us, I say we make him a Ref in a Pro Wrestling match! ;D I'm all for women ruling the world! GIRL POWER! Title: Re:What if Women Ran the World???
