There are things about women that just don’t make sense…

Posted on 20 August 2009

There are many things in this world that just don’t make sense when it comes to women.  I know that I am a woman, but it still doesn’t mean I understand.

• Why do some women find it appropriate to go without a bra in public?  Rule of thumb – if you need your purse, you need your bra.
   
• Nylons.  What group of women thought that these were a good idea when they first came out?  If they didn’t buy them back in the 30s when they were invented, we wouldn’t have to be tortured today.  I just can’t wrap my head around how they became popular…
   
• I am also shocked at the amount of momentum that a pair of nylons picks up when they start to fall down.  They pick up speed at an exponential rate, especially when you are in a meeting full of men.
   
• The collection of items that a woman apparently needs to make it through the day is huge!  Hence the large purses, but how many of those items does a girl actually use?  I know many days I just use my car keys, but still can’t leave the house without my purse. 
   
• Chocolate is needed all of the time.  If a girl is happy, sad, frustrated, discontent, blah, ecstatic, or in love chocolate is part of the equation.  This is why someone invented the chocolate buffet, they knew women would come in droves even though it makes them fat.  The man that came up with this idea is brilliant!  Chocolate makes my pants tight and when I feel sad about how tight my pants are, I eat chocolate to feel better.  Women are trapped in such a vicious cycle of chocolatoholism – is there a way out?
   
• A woman may have 2 pairs of red mary jane heels, 3 pairs of red flats, and 4 pairs of red boots, yet if they see a cute red platform heel it still comes home with them some how.  When is enough enough?  It’s really not clear when it comes to women and their shoes…
   
• Women are constantly reading men’s minds and deciding what they are thinking and feeling before they are able to get a word in.  The poor men are in trouble before they knew what happened, and most times they aren’t thinking past the hockey game later that night.  Why don’t we learn?
   
• If your man has been trained to give the appropriate response to, “Do I look fat in this?” the answer will always be, “No honey, you look amazing and gorgeous.”  Why does the answer make me feel good every time, even though I know he may lying and I possibly look like an elephant crammed into a tutu?

Women are complex.  There aren’t any clear answers…even if you are one!

  I think we call them ‘man’. The ‘wo’ must be Latin for chocolate.
