Why do men die first? This is a question that has gone unanswered for
centuries, but, now we know. It requires a bit of explanation, first:

If you put a woman on a pedestal and try to protect her from the rat race
... you're a male chauvinist. If you stay home and do the housework ...
you're a pansy. If you work too hard ... there's never any time for her. If
you don't work enough ... you're a good-for-nothing bum. If she has a boring
repetitive job with low pay ... this is exploitation. If you have a boring
repetitive job with low pay ... you should get off your lazy behind and find
something better. If you get a promotion ahead of her ... that is
favouritism. If she gets a job ahead of you ... its equal opportunity.

If you mention how nice she looks ... its sexual harassment. If you keep
quiet .... its male indifference. If you cry ... you're a wimp. If you don't
.... you're an insensitive b*stard. If you make a decision without
consulting her ... you're a chauvinist.

If she makes a decision without consulting you, she's a liberated woman. If
you ask her to do something she doesn't enjoy ... that's domination. If SHE
asks you ... it's a favour. If you appreciate the female form and frilly
underwear .... you're a pervert. If you don't ... you're gay.

If you like a woman to shave her legs and keep in shape ... you're sexist.
If you don't ... you're unromantic. If you try to keep yourself in shape
.... you're vain. If you don't ... you're a slob. If you buy her flowers ...
you're after something. If you don't ... you're not thoughtful. If you're
proud of your achievements ... you're full of yourself. If you're not ...
you're unambitious. If she has a headache ... she's tired. If you have a
headache ...... you don't love her anymore. If you want it too often ...
you're oversexed. If you don't ... there must be someone else.

I think you've looked at this from a more feminist point of view, and whilst I support equality I can't stand some of the crazy irrational viewpoints of alot of feminists. I guess they're the fanatical ones though haha.

My opinion on it is that men generally don't take as good a care of themselves as women do, they subject their bodies to alot more punishment in their teens and 20's (although i'm noticing that trend changing) and either seem to let themselves go completely and develop health & weight problems, or they work themselves into the ground and plain ol' wear out.

I think some people get a choice when they die, and others don't.

If it makes any difference, it turns out all the women in my family die far before their husbands. But then again all the women in my family work like amazon's in their ways of life, so we have a high pop of submissive men. *shruggs* just my 2 cents.

idk...some of those video game controllers are quite heavy. Can you die from carpal tunnel? 🙂

"oddball is the perfect example of what newbie was saying."
What the?

Lol Sea Siren! I was trying to refer to certain things with a bit of tact. I think CT could lead to a serious case of unreleased tension though hahaha?

MH I get your humor! Now where's my medal...😄
