Women constantly complain that all men are the same. If all women are saying this then it's obvious that all women are the same.
All women are all talk, they claim they can multi task better than men. This maybe true if their idea of multi tasking involves reversing out of the driveway while talking on a mobile phone then hitting a fence post, mailbox, small child or elderly person.
Some men can multi task which involves managing the office, planning the family holiday, looking for the new family car, deciding which new young blond in the office they will pursue for a lusty affair with while talking on the phone to their wife who is yammering on about how he has to pick up some milk on the way home. Some men can't multi task, which is fine. They may not wish to do too many things at once, they may wish to instead focus on doing one job as best they can at a time, like building a home or servicing residential utilities then move onto the next.
All women get grumpy once a month and take it out on their partners. Some men are grumpy all the time and some are not and some men get grumpy when their favourite sports team loses or when their wife writes off the car.
All women go through menopause. Men don't. Some men will go through the “equivalent” which is the midlife crisis, spending their money they have worked hard to save on a new sports car, leather jacket and hat. Some men will instead decide to have their hair replaced while some will gracefully accept their baldness.
All women try to look their best all the time. Some men don't care but some men do which is why the term 'metrosexual' was coined.
Like any rule, there is an exception (apart from the obvious anatomy). The women who don't confirm to the above rule are characters created by men, men who are also well aware that all women are the same and are after some variety. Think Ripley, Elaine and Buffy. The exception for men is that they all think with logic, use powers of deduction and have excellent spatial awareness (while all women think with emotions) which helps them use maps correctly and make them better drivers.

Ahahahahahahaha this cracks
Ahahahahahahaha this cracks me up. By the way, when was the last time you serviced residential facilities?
If this didn't perpetuate
If this didn't perpetuate idiocy it would crack me up, too. In our hearts of hearts men and women are just the same, only some of us are samer, ey? Yeah, some women get grumpy once a month and take it out on their partner - usually by hitting them hard with their fists and leaving broken ribs and bruises all over.
Yeah, some men can multi task, usually by using their spacial awareness sticking their thing into anything that moves and then buggering off to leave the woman yammering with child.
Yeah, we've all heard of the woman who one day has had enough because nobody really understands her (boo hoo). Because she has no logic she usually takes a shotgun, goes to her local school and takes out a dozen mostly male students because they all deserve to be dead.
As you said, there is all sorts...
This blog is a waste of
This blog is a waste of space. The author has 'woman issues'. Total garbage and drivel.
This might have been funny
This might have been funny if not for the underlying bitterness. Instead it is only sad.
This is just a waste of
This is just a waste of space. Paul maybe you need to get out a little more and/or mix with people who aren't so prejudice of your sex...Skylynne maybe right, sounds like you have underlying bitterness from past experience.
Pigeon holing people because of their sex, race, etc is not the way to go (whether male or female)...writing about it in a dull and bitter manner is just BORING ! *yawn*
Surely you could do better :o)
Love the comments!
Love the comments! “Underlying bitterness” and “Women issues” though? Those stock standard comments help no one. Surprised the M word didn’t come up to be honest; M for Misogynist.
If you really want “underlying bitterness” then check out Sabine’s comment or does hers not count because she’s a woman?
And to “Anonymous”, Skylynne and Veltins, thanks for your concern but I actually have many great female friends who are smart, successful and strong women who have a great sense of humour who would be more than happy to jump into the battle of sexes and point out the flaws of men, rather than just reply with the above mentioned stock standard responses.
Dallas, I did the dishes this morning and cut back the bushes that obscured the driveway yesterday and cooked tea, does that count?
Paul: Sounds like you've
Paul: Sounds like you've been a busy little beaver! I guess it counts but I don't know, it depends... what did you cook for tea and how many dishes did you do? It's really all in the wee details isn't it.
Everyone else: I happen to be a "woman" myself and I'm not necessarily a fan of people being sexist, racist, or... I can't think of any more "ists" ... but the point is, when somebody writes something like this, it's generally designed to be inflammatory and get a response (good or bad). So if you don't like it, realise that the more attention you pay it and the more effort you spend writing comments, you are actually helping the author out through your "support" of their blog... or maybe you could just read it and realise he's poking fun. I'm saving my outraged responses for the genuine displays of hatred in this world (there are plenty to choose from). I wouldn't give you a 10 out of 10 Paul, but I saw the funny side.
Well Paul, you reap what you
Well Paul, you reap what you sow !!
My mistake anyway. I thought Voxy was about people blogging news and other informative stories and ideas. I thought the authors of these stories would be more mature and professional and capable of taking criticism, instead your response has lowered the site to mere messageboard badgering to and fro.
Time to surf for a better site :o)
This is one of those
This is one of those articles that probably wouldn't get run on most news and opinion sites, since it's so clearly written just to get a reaction....which it got.
I say good on Voxy for publishing it. The article's tongue in cheek and at least 60% funny....well maybe 55%.
And I think fair enough that Paul defended his view point -- ridiculous as it is.
Perhaps the problem is that
Perhaps the problem is that this opinion column - (I don't think it can rate as an article as it contains no facts) is based on flawed assumptions.
Just the opening paragraph for example -
"Women constantly complain that all men are the same. If all women are saying this then it's obvious that all women are the same."
(This btw, is known as a sillygism - for somewhat obvious reasons.)
Which women constantly complain that all men are the same? I don't know any women who make that complaint, and I know quite a lot of women. Mostly they're all talking to both men and women, about far more interesting and significant affairs than this.
So should this read, "Women I know constantly complain that all men are the same?" Or "Women that other men I know, know, constantly complain that all men are the same?"
Either way, it can hardly be backed up as a fact. Is it meant to be funny? If so, I've lost my sense of humour.
I'm not convinced that my remark (which stands, btw) about your "underlying bitterness" is addressed by your referring it on to another person who has given you the benefit of their opinion.
"All women get grumpy once a month and take it out on their partners."
Presumably this is a dig at women's menstrual processes and the stress which they can cause. I'd like to see a statistical match with how many refuges there are for the men who have the grumps "taken out on them" as opposed to the refuges for the women whose MEN get grumpy - oh I don't know how often - once a day? once a week? And what's their excuse? Lost at the rugby?
As soon as you generalise, especially with a group as large as a gender group, you're in trouble.
All men think with logic?
I notice you're sounding pretty grumpy - have you got your period dear?
If you make outrageous statements, expect outrage. (I'm not, btw - I'm just mildly amused and very slightly saddened - on your behalf, believe it or not.)
My personal wish, is that all men thought with humour!
I thought this was crack up!
I thought this was crack up! Had me laughing like a banshee from the get go. Sad to see however, that you are getting the same slack that we are. People need to understand that this is not an in-depth report. It’s taking the piss. Grow a sense of humor.
