Men are DOGS...Women are CATS

WOMEN ARE CATS

To describe or understand a woman is one of the most strenuous task that men have had since the begnning of time. The reason for this is because women are known to have these frequent mood swings, which places men in a predicament when trying to please them. Additionally, women have this facetious nature about them, which makes men misunderstand there position on a situation.

In all honesty, how can I as a man please a woman, when in truth women do not even know what they want for themselves. For instance, when a man asks a woman what she would like for her birthday, most women respond with these two answers; "Nothing!" or "Anything, it doesn't matter!" which is generally not true. However, I being the man I am will get you nothing for your birthday if that is what you would like. Additionally, if you want anything, I again being the understanding man I am, will buy exactly what you want, ANYTHING. However, for men like me this creates a problem as you never want 'nothing' or 'anything' in the first place. This behaviour then fosters problems in the relationship, as it relates to communication, which was caused by the woman in the first place but the man again has to bear the blame. This indeciveness and inability to be understood is summed up in a story told to me by Paul Forte.

"A man once found a bottle with a genie in it. Being curious he opened the bottle and out came the genie who thanked the man for releasing him and told him he will grant him 3 wishes. For the first wish the man asked for wealth and it was granted. For the second he asked for a nice fast car and it as granted. Thirdly, he asked for a highway stretching from one end of the United States to the next; to this the genie was a bit taken back and began to ask the man if he knew how much concrete and steel it would take, allowing him to know the world does not have that much steel. So the genie told the man make another wish, at this the men asked the genie to explain women. The genie in his all powerful voice replied, "How many lanes do you want on that highway 2 or 4?"

This clearly shows that women are hard to explain.

However, while listening to a priest a few years back, I remember during his sermon he said, "God made the earth and heavens, the seas and skies, the birds and beasts and man in six days and rested on the seventh day knowing all was good. Then he decided to make woman and since then he has never rested again."

Additionally, the Bible again confirms it in the book of Proverbs, which was written by Solomon a man who had 700 wives and princesses and 300 concubines. In Chapter 21 vs 9, "It is better to dwell in a corner of the house top, than with a brawling woman in a wide house." and again in verse 19, "It is better to dwell in the wilderness than with a contentious and an angry woman." Ladies and gentlemen, Solomon was the wisest man who has ever lived on this earth, I am sure that he too had the same problems most men have and i have confirmed this as he wrote in Proverbs 31 vs 10-11, " Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil."

In his lifetime, Solomon was unable to find a virtuous woman and I am tempted to say they are none but that would be unfair to those women who are truly virtuous and I have met one or two or even three but no more than that.
