Women, Would You Like To Be A Man For A Day?
Would I like to be a man for a day? Sure. I'd like to walk a mile in my husband's Nikes. It would help me understand the male species. However...if I got lost while walking the mile, I'd ask directions. Men are physically stronger, faster and have less body fat; but what I envy most is their clothes. I would love to be able to wear a different shirt and have the result be considered a different outfit. Males don't appreciate the advantages they have. For example, they don't appreciate shaving - but they should. It removes the top layer of facial skin before it turns to wrinkles. Women pay big bucks for laser treatments or chemicals peels to get the same result. Men don't have to fight for equal pay with women. Unfortunately, women in their struggle to get through the glass ceiling (as well as sweep up the broken glass) have managed to gain equal rights to stress-related heart disease. There's an equal rights bumper sticker that reads, "A woman's place in the house..and the senate". Right on! Life has qualified us for those positions. Everyday we solve problems regarding health, transportation, education and more - and all within budget! Several years ago the men in my family gave me a license plate frame that read, "The best man for the job is a woman". I thought it was an amusingly stimulating thought - until one day when I was getting into my car in the library parking lot. A man passing by read the license plate frame and started yelling obscenities at me. When I drove out of the parking lot, he followed me in his car for several blocks, yelling obscenities out his car window. Because I had seen this man carrying library books, I assumed he could read; and if he could read, I assumed he was educated. Obviously, not educated enough. It's no longer a man's world. Stewardesses are now flight attendants. Actresses are referred to as actors. Soon a mentor will be called a peopletor. If a man continues to expect his home to be his castle, he should expect the Tidy Bowl man to be sailing his little boat in the king's throne. If a man thinks his dog is his best friend, his dog must cook, clean and like to watch football. Although I like new experiences and challenges, I'm sure one day as a man would be enough for me. After all, it didnt take God that long to decide to improve his work by making woman.

My grandmother knew language is a living thing - that it changes and evolves. However, she would have had it inoculated against slang.
