After much reflection on Gender

I have come to be able to state my conclusion in verse...

Men's faults are many,
Women's only two:
Everything they say, &
Everything they do.

I'd like to dedicate this to our beloved co-admin of the feminine gender, Shellie. :twisted:

Man says to God. "Why did you make Women so beautiful?"

God: "So you would love her"

Man says to God. "But why did you make women so dumb?"

God: "So they would love you."

I love you, too, Poimen.

Poimen,

the first step to self-help is admitting you have a problem.

We're all here for you.
