As a woman I know…..

Share this:

As a woman I know…..The difference between the floor and the laundry basket.

I also know,that a napkin is used to wipe the face,not the toilet seat.

As a woman I know,when I inquire after u  and you say “nothing”, i probably should ask again,even if I sound like a stuck record.

As a woman I know,that a dinner plate does not have legs,and will not walk to the kitchen on its own.

As a woman,I know,that my telivision is for me to hear,not the next state.

As a woman I have a right to chat if you have a right to snore.

As a woman I know to take a call when it rings,because,you could have won the Nobel peace prize and,or,lost an arm,and both are equally important. And NOW!!!

As a woman I know that it’s ok to indulge in banal conversations even if you are Socrates.

And I know that “nice” is the most ambiguous and insipid word in the dictionary…..try “niceness” instead.

As a woman I’m sensitive enough not to say “darling I know you are occupied,and I’ll stay out of your hair,even if you don’t have any!!!”

As a woman,I know you’re staff’s idiosyncracy,is not directly proportionate to you’re intelligence or efficiency.

I also know ears are meant for hearing,and can be incredibly usefull even with you’re spouse.

As a woman I also know,you are Hercules,and can carry the burden of your problems alone,but I’d like to know,and share your burden too as  my shoulders aren’t made of glass either.

As a woman,I know the difference between a sofa and a living human being.

And I know that a cricket match doesn’t necessarily mean nirvana.

I also know, that my mother is not mother Teresa,and she can do wrong.

And I do have the compassion to know,that even if I am dying,your cold  is a more pressing condition and needs my urgent attention.

As a woman I know,when I ask “how was the 7 course meal I painstakingly cooked” belching is not the most appropriate form of appreciation.

I also do know,that a praise is not a national secret you can not utter. And it never killed anyone.

And that a smile is not impossible,even if it means lifting your lips against gravity.

And,as a woman I know,that your bad moods has nothing to do with pms…..and it may just be a result of “Manopause” so whatever your age,Deal with it.
