Where would men be
without women
to influence our characters
and point out our weaknesses
men would be uncivilized
closer to animals
who only want to sleep and eat
we would still be in dark caves
wearing skins and scratching ourselves
women give us inspiration
women give us aspiration
women tame the wildness in our hearts
without women
men would be savages
and hungry.
Very enjoyable poem.
What immediately strikes me is how financially better off we would be without women.
No joint accounts
Microwave meals
One car
One wardrobe
Clothing only replaced every few years
Holiday for one (no cocktails)
Action movies only (no soaps)
No implants, facelifts, beauty salons
No flowers
No Valentines Day presents
No birthday or christmas presents, etc, etc, etc
THE TOILET SEAT CAN STAY WHERE I WANT IT
SIGN ME UP NOW !
Who was it who said that America is a matriarchal society?!
Women certainly have admirable qualities that deserve our thanks
and encouragement - not least their importance to the young of
both genders in becoming caring human beings in later life. They
possess (or should) that restraint that can be a safety valve for the
sometimes careless adventures indulged in by the male of the species. At the same time, they are often there behind...pushing! ?
An interesting poem which is open to many challenges. I think men and women are interdependent and therefore compliment one another.
A good poem
Thank you for this

Women can do some things better than men, and vice versa, resulting in a well-balanced society.
