Subject: Help needed From: Morticia Date: 03 Dec 01 - 08:00 PM I don't want to start an inter-gender war here, promise, but I am looking for a short, pithy and preferably funny statement about men, or to be more exact, derogatory to men to stitch into a sampler for a friend who is having man trouble right now....something on the lines of Q.How many men does it take to tile a bathroom? A. Two, if you slice them thinly enough.....but much shorter. |

Subject: RE: BS: Help needed From: Midchuck Date: 03 Dec 01 - 08:56 PM Quotations from women about women....... Inside every older person is a younger person - wondering what the hell happened. Cora Harvey Armstrong The hardest years in life are those between ten and seventy. Helen Hayes (at 73) Whoever thought up the word "Mammogram"? Every time I hear it, I think I'm supposed to put my breast in an envelope and send it to someone. -Jan King- A male gynecologist is like an auto mechanic who never owned a car. -Carrie Snow- Laugh and the world laughs with you. Cry and you cry with your girlfriends. -Laurie Kuslansky- Old age ain't no place for sissies. -Bette Davis- A man's got to do what a man's got to do. A woman must do what he can't. -Rhonda Hansome- The phrase "working mother" is redundant. -Jane Sellman- Every time I close the door on reality it comes in through the windows. -Jennifer Unlimited- Whatever women must do they must do twice as well as men to be thought half as good. Luckily, this is not difficult. -Charlotte Whitton- Thirty-five is when you finally get your head together and your body starts falling apart. -Caryn Leschen- I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once. -Jennifer Unlimited- If you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning. -Catherine Aird- When I was young, I was put in a school for retarded kids for two years before they realized I actually had a hearing loss. And they called ME slow! -Kathy Buckley- I'm not offended by all the dumb blonde jokes because I know I'm not dumb . . and I'm also not blonde. -Dolly Parton- You see a lot of smart guys with dumb women, but you hardly ever see a smart woman with a dumb guy. - Erica Jong- If high heels were so wonderful, men would still be wearing them. -Sue Grafton- I'm not going to vacuum 'til Sears makes one you can ride on. -Roseanne Barr- I think---therefore I'm single. -Lizz Winstead- When women are depressed they either eat or go shopping. Men invade another country. -Elayne Boosler- Behind every successful man is a surprised woman. -Maryon Pearson In politics, if you want anything said, ask a man--if you want anything done, ask a woman. -Margaret Thatcher- I have yet to hear a man ask for advice on how to combine marriage and a career. -Gloria Steinem- I never married, because there was no need. I have three pets at home which answer the same purpose as a husband. I have a dog that growls every morning, a parrot that swears all afternoon, and a cat that comes home late every night. -Marie Corelli- If men can run the world, why can't they stop wearing neckties? How intelligent is it to start the day by tying a noose around your neck? -Linda Ellerbee- I am a marvelous housekeeper. Every time I leave a man I keep his house. -Zsa Zsa Gabor- Nobody can make you feel inferior without your permission. -Eleanor Roosevelt-

Subject: RE: BS: Help needed From: Deda Date: 03 Dec 01 - 09:05 PM If they can send a man to the moon --- why can't they send them ALL? What did God say after he made Adam? I can do MUCH better than that! (I'm actually very fond of any number of men, but it does sometimes seem that all the trouble in the history of the world has been caused by Y chromosomes.) |
Subject: RE: BS: Help needed From: Deda Date: 03 Dec 01 - 09:07 PM Another great line, and I don't know who said it: Sweetheart, if it's got wheels or a penis, you're gonna have trouble with it. |

Subject: RE: BS: Help needed From: wysiwyg Date: 04 Dec 01 - 10:14 AM I usually do not engage in or condone male-bashing, but if you are looking for something to get her laughing when she needs to, I wish I still had this one poster. It showed a gingerbread man, and the caption was about these being better than men.... oh yeah, I forgot to mention, the head was bitten off on the gingerbread man. Maybe the caption was simply, "The Ideal Man." ~Susan |

8 Pints, that's priceless! I think the real question in this case would be not "is he right or wrong", but rather, "is he right or left". |

Subject: RE: BS: Help needed From: Jim Dixon Date: 06 Dec 01 - 12:09 PM Morticia, I don't mind you making jokes about men, but do you really think stitching them into a sampler is worth the trouble? How are you going to feel in a week or two when your friend has made up with her boyfriend (or starts looking for a new one) and hides your sampler in a drawer? |
Subject: RE: BS: Help needed From: Wolfgang Date: 07 Dec 01 - 04:27 AM You see a lot of smart guys with dumb women, but you hardly ever see a smart woman with a dumb guy. - Erica Jong- Nice idea of Peter (Midchuck) to smuggle a single anti-women citation into a big set of anti-men. The line clearly implies (under realistic circumstances) that women are less smart than men on the average. It remains an open question whether Erica Jong thinks this is true or just doesn't understand the implications of what she writes.

Subject: RE: BS: Help needed From: kendall Date: 07 Dec 01 - 10:39 AM Men are like wine. They both start out as grapes, and it takes a woman to walk all over them until they become something you want to have dinner with. |
