why women are proud of themselves

3. I am deeply offended.
Ok, I'm not really. I do most of the grocery shopping and cooking here, though.

5. We make so much money we don't have to put up with any shit.
We can pay big dumb guys to do any necessary heavy lifting, and spend time with the ones we like out of choice, not necessity.

22. Hey!
I own more than three types of hammers, and know how to use 'em all!

Oh, a response to this thread? Okay... Widows don't automatically die if they don't remarry immediately.

(Okay, so that doesn't apply to me personally, but still.)

13. We know stuff about
people. Like their names, anniversaries of important events, their birthdays, anniversaries of important events, that they're married or not and to whom they're married or with whom they're not, anniversaries of important events.

24. Then why did I see a woman walking across
the parking lot this noon, spit? She was not the first woman I saw do this in public.
BTW she is early 20's & cute.

The record was 7. Then she told me to stop. I think it's a good thing, I don't think 8 was going to happen anyway.

23. if we clean the bathroom
we don't need to make a big deal out of it, and tell everyone about it so that we can get pats on the back.

Also - we can ask for directions, without our womanhood feeling threatened.

32. I thought they were called 'skid marks'
Seems rather more appropriate, and, having once been married, I can confirm that yes, females do have them.

34. We can totally befuddle a man with just a look.
We are experts in non-verbal communication.
We have a "look" for just about every occasion and situation.
"Honey? Where are my brown socks?"
<the look that says "Jesus H. Christ. In addition to everything else I do around this place am I expected to be your ferking valet too? Try your bleeding sock drawer. Honestly!">
"Thanks hon."

45. We can get the children to school, keep the house (reasonably) clean,
put dinner on the table, spend quality time with our family, get a load of laundry done, and hold down (another) job....without needing accolades for it.

47. I have a big list
cause i can be very feminine and let the men do the hard job, and i won't feel ashamed of "using" the guy.
Cause i can be very strong and use my force when i want to and not feel like a tomboy.
Cause i can cry and not feeling stupid.
Cause i can show my feelings and i'll be lovely.
Cause even wearing a simple t-shirt i can be sexy.
And cause being a woman i can have better treatment if i smile.

49. We pee in private and let the pregnant lady go first!
For which I was always eternally grateful.

We can walk in high heels if we want to.

We're polite just because it's nicer.

We keep our drool in a handy Kleenex when the Xerox guy (in my wp) shows up (but we do nudge and giggle quietly), and no, we don't resort to pulling the plug just to make a service call.
