Men need the womans' influence
Let's face it guys, although women can be extremely (extraordinarily, overwhelmingly, completely.....you get the picture) aggravating and frustrating, we need them in more ways than the obvious. The influences they wield in our lives go far above and beyond telling us the grass needs cut and reminding us that the "PTA meeting is tonight, so don't be late coming home." Those things are important, because I can come home from work and ignore the fact that the dog is always getting lost in the backyard and it isn't easy remembering the fact that my child is actually in school let alone that they expect me to show up on a Monday evening to listen to a couple hours of fund raising plugs and a vote for next years officers. By the way...... never mind, the PTA thing is another whole article.
Truth be known, we need women in a much deeper, life enriching way, because we need our house, yard, "home".
What do I mean? Reality is, if it weren't for women, men would live in caves with a bigscreen TV, couch, fridge and, maybe a microwave. What can be more sublime than coming home to nothing but the essentials, though maybe I should also add a PC and toilet to that list. But women have a kind of balancing influence on us, they keep us from focusing on the essentials and get us off on rabbit trails. Like, what fabric the couch is upholstered with and whether or not it goes with the rug they just have to have.... Rug?!?!? Hey, it's a cave for crying out loud who needs a rug but then, to keep the peace, we give in "just this once" and from then on, it's a slippery slope to Home and Garden and Southern Living.
Next thing you know, we have a house in the suburbs, two cars, a dog who always gets lost in the backyard and PTA meetings....... shoot! gotta go, I can hear her telling me we're going to be late.
So thanks ladies. If it weren't for you, I'd just be laying around on my couch watching the big screen and thinking about what's in the fridge.
