sceadugenga Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Men Are Just Happier People-- What do you expect from such simple creatures? Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can be President. You can never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. You can wear NO shirt to a water park. Car mechanics tell you the truth. The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this one is just too icky. You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress $5000. Tux rental-$100. The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet. One mood all the time. Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about tanks. A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase. You can open all your own jars. 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 only have to shave your face and neck. You can play with toys all your life. Your belly usually hides your big hips. One wallet and one pair of shoes one color for all seasons. You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look. You can "do" your nails with a pocket knife. You have freedom of choice concerning growing a mustache.. You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes. No wonder men are happier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

November Rain Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Actually, sceadugenga - scientifically it's married men that are happier & healthier. Single men - not so, I'm afraid. Go figure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grover Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 (edited) i mean, the OP has some very good points, men also dont have big breasts which are a burden for any sports activity. They exist to serve one purpose and are needed only for a short duration yet the poor women have to lug them around with them everywhere they go for all their adult life. its a bad deal IMO Edited July 22, 2007 by Grover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwertz Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Before - 3 times married, 3 times unhappy, worried and unhealthy. After - single, healthy and happy. All scientists, go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, they dont even have the benifit of having purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenShone Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 (edited) If men are happier, why do they usually die before women? Maybe, the men are just happier than women belief is just a front-act and nothing else. Edited July 22, 2007 by GreenShone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sceadugenga Posted July 23, 2007 Author Share Posted July 23, 2007 If men are happier, why do they usually die before women?Maybe, the men are just happier than women belief is just a front-act and nothing else. We work harder in more physical type work, also we play harder. I know you'll point to a myriad examples to prove me wrong but I mean the big picture. Look at the millions of professional athletes worldwide who wreck their bodies and strain their hearts, most of these are men. I think men are happier because we worry less. Growing old isn't an issue, our wives are normally faithful (mine weren't) where husbands tend to wander. Our hormones are uncomplicated and our needs simple.

LaReina Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I want to be happy But I won't be happy Till I make you happy, too Life's really worth living When we are mirth-giving Why can't I give some to you? When skies are gray And you say you are blue I'll send the sun smiling through I want to be happy But I won't be happy Till I make you happy, too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eek Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Do men get cellulite? I dont think so. Is it not something to do with how the sexes distribute fat. Womens bodies tend to deposit fat on the outside as their bodies protect their inner goings on because of possible childbirth. We have some kind of honeycomb set up where fat deposits in the 'pockets' forming cellulite. Mens bodies tend to deposit fat around the artiries..so when they start showing fat on the outside, just think of the nasty gloop that must be inside. Men dont have that 'honeycomb' so they dont get cellulite. As even thin women can get cellulite, so its more about how the body distrubutes fat rather than any weight issues. Ok, because im babbling and rattling off stuff i THINK rather than know, here's a qualified comment: Cellulite on Men “It’s unclear exactly why cellulite happens, but it’s related to levels of fat, and women have more fat than men do on their hips, thighs, and buttocks,” explains New York City dermatologist Diane Berson. Also, guys have thicker skin, which may prevent that puckering from occurring on areas where they tend to accumulate flab, like the belly, back, and chest. Still it’s not a given that females are destined to get cellulite and guys won’t ever have to worry about it. “Cellulite is also genetic,” says Dr. Berson. “So while many women will develop it in varying degrees, particularly as they get older, some men are hardwired to get it on their thighs and buttocks as well.” [source: Cosmopolitan] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suegha Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I read somewhere that celluite can be reduced by remaining hydrated. That is by drinking lots of water. My wife has never had cellulite (I know some people don't) and drinks nothing but water. Obviously a few glasses of wine don't count! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Burr Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Men can write their name in the snow whilst having a pee. Extra points if it's in their girlfriends hand-writing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwertz Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Girls can too, SB. It just takes a little more practice. A gogo dancer once wrote my full name in Thai with a felt tip pen - with both hands behind her back. Want to know how she held the pen? Use your imagination.

sbk Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 no thanks. Speaking as a woman, frankly, I have to tell you, the mind absolutely boggles at some of these "tricks" and the whole idea of it is rather disgusting. IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwertz Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 ^ Granted, SBK, I can only say I was enlightened about how much a woman can do if faced with the challenge. And that was a trick a man can't easily do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbk Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Anyway... I realized another reason men are happier people. Because (in general) they can live with dirty clothes on the floor and a filthy bathroom and not even notice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

realthaideal Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 "I realized another reason men are happier people. Because (in general) they can live with dirty clothes on the floor and a filthy bathroom and not even notice." I notice..... it's just that I can't get to it until tomorrow. Or maybe the day after that. Or when it gets too bad, or a girl might visit. And really, men are easy to figure out. Just a few buttons and emotions, that keeps us simple to please/ easy to be happy. We're just still in touch with the caveman roots. And derned proud of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
