She says
It also takes innate skill and a gargantuan stamina to indulge in every woman's favourite pastime - shopping. Walking around malls, hunting for the best bargains, and the mad rush to the fitting room is characteristic of this sporting activity (yes, I do know it's not an official sport but it should be recognised as one).
I have had guy friends admitting defeat long before my gal pal and I succumbed to exhaustion. One of them was actually the vice-captain of a sport team. Whoever said women have less stamina than men?
He says
True true. Women do absorb the rigours of shopping far better than men. If however, the fairer sex would like to really test their mettle, may I suggest rugby? It might just be a tad rougher and tougher than shopping.
She says
If we do test our mettle with rugby, do you guys wanna try pain with childbirth? Wholly mammoth!
Okay, I may not be an expert on this subject (since I've never experienced it before), but watching too many doctor shows on television makes me want to curl up into a little ball and hide under my blanket whenever I think about the inevitability of having to go through the process of giving birth.
He say
Again, I can't really argue with that, since I'm never going to experience it in my life, even if I wanted to trade places (which I don't). I wish I could say that it is a statistically proven fact that men are constipated more often than women, but I'm not sure that's true. Anyway, it would probably be a bit crude to compare childbirth with constipation.
She says
So what does this show? Men may be the tougher sex physically, but mentally, we women could be said to be superior.
For an example, closer to home, just look at your mom. They cook, do household chores and raise you and your sibling(s), without a penny in return.
Of course, some may argue that "the joy of motherhood is a reward on its own." Uh-huh, sure. And reality television really is the reality. Okay, joke.
He says
Oh, c'mon! Cut your old man some slack. He works all day to support your lifestyle. And what does he get in return? Nothing! Especially with Oprah brainwashing everyone every two days as to the virtues and qualities of motherhood.
Does she ever care about the men? Oh no. Men are wusses and cheats, aren't they? AREN'T THEY, OPRAH?!
We need to go back to the old times where men were appreciated for being tough-as-nails bread-winners, and not castigated as unfaithful, lying pigs who avoid pain and herculean tasks at all costs.
*Sigh* Oprah makes me angry.
She says
Fine, how about women's intuition? Though sometimes we tend to let our emotions cloud our common sense, you have to admit, women do make better listeners than most men.
He says
Better listeners? Yeah sure, but I didn't know listening is an act of toughness.
Let's cut to the middle of a Rambo movie. John Rambo is bleeding from 56 different places. He has just pulled an arrow out of his arm, which he uses to slit the throat of the Russia/Afghani/Corrupt American/Anyone stupid enough to mess with Rambo.
He then breaks that huge ass machine gun off the tank and straps it around himself. As he advances on the hoardes of people stupid enough to mess with him, what do you think he does?
Does John Rambo put down that gun, draw up a chair and LISTEN? HELL NO! He blows their friggin' brains apart, that's what he does. The world doesn't need those people. That's toughness, lady!
She says
But we girls have International Women's Day (8th of March), do guys have an International Men's Day? *Wink wink*
He says
Honey, I hate to break it to you, but everyday is International Men's Day.
She says
Of course, I might be biased in that I myself belong to the female species. But as a matter of fact, in this argument, there is no winner, because both genders are equally tough, just in different areas.
He says
Except that men are the winners, and are tougher. We are the winners, precisely because we are tougher.
She says
See the difference between men and women? We ask for equality and you deny us justice. Naturally, now I would argue that women are the tougher sex. If the rise of feminism does not prove anything to you, I don't know what will. But don't worry guys, we won't overpower you too much. If anything, we're always willing to share. After all, we are women, not barbarians insisting our own superiority.
He says
Then I'll give you one thing - admitting men are (male chauvinistic) pigs, since we own everything else. Oh, just to ram home the point - Chuck Norris is a man. There can't be an argument now. Not unless you want to die a mysterious Roundhouse Kick-related death. hooked
