What Gobsmacks, Bamboozles and Confuses Me - Men

What gobsmacks, bamboozles and confuses me
My answer to that question is no great mystery
It’s men’s complete lack of understanding of women
So let me explain it quite succinctly to them

Guys you should be kind your good lady
Treat her like an adult, and not a darn baby
Women’s minds can be read just like a good book 
and if you don’t listen to her, just avoid her left hook!

But PLEASE beware if her monthlies are due,
she may rant and rave and say she hates you.
And if she needs chocolate, she really NEEDS it, okay -
Get to the candy store without a moments delay!

Many issues of women you’ll discover men are the cause
There’s MENtal and MENace and the darn MENopause

What Gobsmacks, Bamboozles and Confuses me contest

Curtis Moorman Date: 11/12/2018 2:35:00 AM Give a man a menial task to perform And he may become a mendicant When questioned, he may be mendacious Perhaps if they were placed in menageries they could be better controlled.
