Haha. Funny. Accurate...sort of. I think these differences are disappearing as young women find their voices and act to become who and what they were intended.
I ALWAYS remember the punch lines!
I could write for days on me being sick in bed. LOL>
Fun post.

I agree with you. it is kind of stereotyped.
I admire you for remembering punch lines. Half the time I can't remember the joke!

I meant MEN being sick in bed, no ME. Stupid. Need a new keyboard, LOL.

Comment from Bill Schott
This piece, Difference Between Men and Women, has some classic examples of those differences. The one I remember best is that women don't want men to solve their problem, just listen to the problem and understand it.

We're strange creatures, for sure.
Comment from Heidi M
I really enjoyed this one! My favorite lines in this:
Men: "Honey, 7 o'clock, time to go." Women: 7:30. "Ready."
That is so funny (and true!).
I also like your ending... 'Women get to the end and... and...' Clever!

This is very cute. There are huge differences between genders. Some we like and some we don't--on both sides. You given some cute examples of them here. Nicely illustrated and I wish you much luck in the contest. Marilyn

I can relate to all these differences between women and men. I like the format, how a situation is posed and then how men and women react differently. The ending made me smile because I can never remember the punchline either:) Good job.

Great humor. Men like to cut into our conversation. They can't
wait to hear themselves speak. Then they repeat and repeat...
Yes, I like how you say woman can't make up their minds in the
food ordering process. I like the salmon, too.
What part of Texas are you from? We lived in Dallas area for 18 years.
Both john and I worked for high end retailers. John sold Ralph Lauren
at Neiman Marcus. I sold rags and then stayed home with my two
daughters. Monica and Annie now work as therapists with youth who
have autism and live in Colorado.
We moved to Southern Minnesota - wilderness country in the middle of
corn and soy bean fields. The people love to tell stories here! Chat anytime.

well, hello! so you're up in frigid country now. I love your pen name. mine was a joke when I first started this and now I guess I'm stuck with it.
I live in San Antonio - love it because though it's growing, it's still small town friendly and not a fast paced city. Freeways have gotten to be horrendous, however.
your daughters sound like neat people. I lived in Crested Butte, Co for 9 years - too cold for me.
thank you for "fanning" me!

Thanks for being a pen pal. We lived in Dallas Metroplex for 18 years. We fell in love with your city, the old mansions and the river walk. Our buildings downtown face each other with their backs of the shops to the river. They don't have outdoor eating. We do have a Rhythm of the River art and music fest. We have to have fun wherever we are. Spring is coming soon. flylikeaneagle

fun wherever you are is the way to go. good for you.
Spring has sprung, here - beautiful.

Comment from apky
The following lines really had me in stitches (well, being a woman...see?)
Men on phone: "Okay. Right. See ya."
Women on phone: "And then you add a Little Tobasco and...it's not that hot, and..."
Men: "Yes, I'll have the steak."
Women: "Well, I should have the salmon, but the fried shrimp sounds... no wait, I think I'll..."
Great read, thank you for making me laugh in the small hours (can't sleep, see?)

Hmmm, you could probably get in trouble if your spouse reads this post, LOL. It's humorous but I found it very strictly stereotyped. I know you were trying to make a point about differences.

Comment from Ogden
Your observations and examples of typical differences between the sexes are humorous and believable - except for the first one.
The brevity of the guy's replies may be typical of some men, (most of them from Maine) but I think your example is far too far-fetched. Or I'm all wet.

Comment from MelB
This is a fun and humorous piece. I do think men are more direct, and women are more wordy. Of course, there are always exceptions to the rule. Best wishes in the contest.
