Women Vs Men

What I dislike most about certain women is their insatiable need to know, that determined prying, that ferreting to be privy to what does not concern them. And then to spread it like a favorite recipe. When Eve gave way to curiosity rather than obedience and ate the fruit forbidden, she unknowingly stamp this trait on every female that would emerge from her body. What I dislike most about certain men is their helplessness to care for themselves in simplest things, as if they never outgrew the need for their mothers, and that shameful fear they carry of doing something that might be construed as “womanly” or belonging strictly to housewives. When Adam listened to his wife, he lost his freedom to stand alone, and begot a race of males who sought out women for wives to prove their manhood – but never dared to leave their mothers’ side.

Probably the reasons you and I prefer pets/dogs to humans. Thanks again, Maurice.
