Default Why Are Men Happier????

(This is for the women )

Chocolate is just another snack
Car mechanics tell you the truth.
Your last name stays put.
Chocolate is just another snack.
You never have to drive to another gas station because this one's just too icky.
Wrinkles add character.
Wedding dress...$2000; tux rental...$100
People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them
One mood...ALL the time

Why are men happier?

While women are thinking about chocolate, car repairs, name changes, gas, wrinkles, weddings, and being self-conscious, men are thinking about women.

My beard grows unnaturally fast for me, so I've decided to stop shaving, going for the rugged look. It's been like that since I was 12!

Men are not happier. They just suppress their feeelings more than women.

Men are happier, because they're so very happy they are not women.

To be honest asking whether men are happier than women is like asking whether white people are happier than black people. It's not that simple.

Default On the other hand, as a woman...

Chocolate is a spiritual experience beyond anything else on this earth.
You can take your car to a mechanic without losing face
You can change your last name many times throughout your life
You can use concealer to cover a pimple without people thinking you're weird
You never get a rash in an embarrassing place because you used a gas station restroom that was just too icky.
You can dye your hair without people thinking you're weird.
Wedding dress...$2000; tux rental...$100; knowing it's your husband's job to pay for your daughter's wedding... priceless.
Great entertainment to be had from people who stare at your chest when you're talking to them
Any mood...any time
You can bond with your friends without punching them
You get credit for the tinest act of self-sufficiency
The same tool set lasts for years...maybe decades
You don't have to wear the same clothes every day because you have no fashion sense.

Chocolate is the same experience regardless of sex.

Men can also change their name as many times as they desire.

Men aren't that superficial as to care about an insignificant pimple.

I have seen many men with dyed hair.

Saying it's your husbands job to do something sounds abit sexist to me.

Have you noticed where women stare, it's abit lower than your chest.

Men are very capable of bonding without using their fists.

There are many men with excellent fashion sense, but some couldn't care less about what they wear - they have more important things to worry about.

Apparently, your last name doesn't change if you're an Icelander. I know a married couple with different last names. I can't recall how the kids' surname is chosen.

*resists making a joke that probably ought to be pulled*

Umm... stand-in joke... umm...

Okay, so comedy isn't my strong suit. ImOpen says: "Strong means weak." Oh yeah? Well, "Weak means strong." So "Strong means weak means strong."

So there. Nyah.

Default Other reasons why men are happier

We never worry about CUP sizes. Though we develop them when we are forty five.

Body hair is sexy.

If our slip shows, it's even more sexy

We spend 2 minutes flat - be it buying a card or a T-shirt

We, thankfully, never have to wear heels

Washing hair is not an hourly exercise

We never have to tweek our eyebrows and lather ourselves with the most hideous concoctions

Interior decoration is not cardiac surgery

You can be president.

You can never be pregnant.

You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park.

You can wear NO T-shirt to a water park.

You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt.

Same work, more pay.


You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness.

If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend.

Your underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack.

Three pairs of shoes are more than enough.

You almost never have strap problems in public.

You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes.

Everything on your face stays its original color.

The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades.

You have to shave only your face and neck.

You can play with toys all your life.

Your belly usually hides your big hips.

You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look.

You can "do" your nails with a pocketknife.

You have freedom of choice concerning growing a moustache.

We can say 'F***' and make it happen

We're also strangely fond of talking about our periods and other vaguely vagina-related woes.

Hasn't everybody read this:
Ever noticed how all women's problems start with MEN (especially if you take liberties with spelling):

MENstrual cramps
MENtal breakdown
MENopause
GUYnecologist
HISterectomy
