What women say about men

Women have played important roles throughout history. They have been responsible for the rise and fall of nations, sustaining families, and have been the focal point of worship in many religions.

I think it’s not wrong to say that the women of today never had it so good; I mean of course, society’s treatment of our women.

In the earliest of times women were mere slaves to men. But with the dawn of the Modern Age, the treatment of women has improved dramatically. Today, women are near equals to men in almost all fields.

I think it is not wrong to say that at coffee shop gatherings men talk a lot about women and vice versa, the same could be said about women on men.

But does each side know what the other side is saying?

On this occasion, it might be interesting to hear what women have been saying or have said about us, men.

Here are some interesting examples.

These quotes are actually quite harmless though they might raise some eyebrows or set your heart and mind abuzz!

Nonetheless true or not, you decide. Read on...

“God made man stronger but not necessarily more intelligent. He gave women intuition and femininity. And, used properly, that combination easily jumbles the brain of any man I've ever met.” ~Farrah Fawcett

“The male chromosome is an incomplete female chromosome. In other words the male is a walking abortion; aborted at the gene stage. To be male is to be deficient, emotionally limited; maleness is a deficiency disease and males are emotional cripples.”~Valerie Solanos

“Men are generally more law-abiding than women. Women have the feeling that since they didn't make the rules, the rules have nothing to do with them.”
~Diane Johnson

“The trouble about man is twofold. He cannot learn truths which are too complicated; he forgets truths which are too simple.”
~Rebecca West

“Men are like a deck of cards. You'll find the occasional king, but most are jacks.” ~Laura Swenson

“If you want anything said, ask a man. If you want something done, ask a woman.” ~Margaret Thatcher

“Whatever women do they must do twice as well as men to be thought half as good. Luckily, this is not difficult.”

~ Charlotte Whitton

“Behind every great man, there is a surprised woman.”~Maryon Pearson

“The male is a domestic animal which, if treated with firmness and kindness, can be trained to do most things.” ~Jilly Cooper

“A man can be short and dumpy and getting bald but if he has fire, women will like him.”
~Mae West

The old theory was "Marry an older man, because they're more mature." But the new theory is: "Men don't mature. Marry a younger one."
~Rita Rudner

“A gentleman is simply a patient wolf.”~Lana Turner

“Women speak because they wish to speak, whereas a man speaks only when driven to speech by something outside himself - like, for instance, he can't find any clean socks.” ~Jean Kerr

“They say women talk too much. If you have worked in Congress you know that the filibuster was invented by men.”
~Clare Booth Luce

“If men can run the world, why can't they stop wearing neckties? How intelligent is it to start the day by tying a little noose around your neck?”
~Linda Ellerbee

“When women are depressed they either eat or go shopping. Men invade another country.”
~Elayne Boosler

“Men can read maps better than women. 'Cause only the male mind could conceive of one inch equaling a hundred miles.”

“Give a man a free hand and he'll run it all over you.”

“Men are like a fine wine. They start out like grapes, and it's our job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something you'd like to have dinner with.” ~Author Unknown

“Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other. Perhaps they should live next door and just visit now and then.”
~Katharine Hepburn

“To be happy with a man you must understand him a lot and love him a little. To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.”
~Helen Rowland

“Marrying a man is like buying something you've been admiring for a long time in a shop window. You may love it when you get it home, but it doesn't always go with everything else in the house.”
~Jean Kerr

“Why are women so much more interesting to men than men are to women?”
~Virginia Woolf

“The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.” ~Author Unknown

“Can you imagine a world without men? No crime and lots of happy fat women.” ~Nicole Hollander

"An archeologist is the best husband any woman can have: the older she gets, the more interested he is in her."
~Agatha Christie

“A retired husband is often a wife's full-time job.”
~Ella Harris

“Whether women are better than men I cannot say—but I can say they are certainly no worse.”
~Golda Meir

Wow women, I wonder what we men would do without her!

Cheers!
