Some Advantages of Being Male

Some Advantages of Being Male By Elton Camp Benefits of masculinity I cannot deny There are reasons to like being a guy It’s assumed men deserve higher pay And as a man, I really like it that way We wear the same clothes to every affair And nobody will notice or show they care Just two pairs of shoes are entirely enough We needn’t color coordinate and such stuff There’s no makeup I must rub onto my face In fact, to do that would be counted a disgrace My hair I don’t need either to straighten or curl But that for sure isn’t the case if you are a girl Nobody will ask me to serve as a babysitter So with others kids my time I don’t flitter People don’t expect me to cook them a meal I see absolutely nothing wrong with that deal If visitors should find that the house isn’t clean, They won’t blame me and you know what I mean They say, “That poor guy’s wife is such a lazy lout. She doesn’t have a clue what housekeeping is about.” For promotions at work I always have the inside track Being a male will compensate for any skills I may lack And when I become old and ugly that will still be okay I might find that it inspires more respect to be that way For a woman to be considered to be as good as me, At least twice as competent she is required to be And the main thing that truly causes me to smile I can come to have kids without bearing a child
