Why Men are Happier than Women

WHY MEN ARE NEVER DEPRESSED:
Men Are Just Happier People-- What do you expect from such simple creatures? Our last name stays put. The garage is all ours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. We can be President. We can never be pregnant. We can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. We can wear NO shirt to a water park. Car mechanics tell us the truth. The world is our urinal. We never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this one is just too icky. We don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress $5000. Tux rental-$100. People never stare at our chest when you're talking to them. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle our feet.

One mood all the time.

Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. We know stuff about tanks. A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase. We can open all your own jars. We get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness. If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be our friend.

My underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack.
Three pairs of shoes are more than enough for me.

We almost never have strap problems in public. I am unable to see wrinkles in my clothes.. Everything on my face stays its original color. The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades. We only have to shave our face and neck.
We can play with toys all your life. One wallet and one pair of shoes -- one color for all seasons. We can wear shorts no matter how your legs look. We can 'do' your nails with a pocket knife. We have freedom of choice concerning growing a mustache, providing our wives let us.

I can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.

No wonder we men are happier.

"One mood all the time", that made me giggle (and, yes, I'm a woman. What the word giggle didn't give it away??)

Great post

Oh yeah I almost forgot..today in Canada the Government of BC arrested an old-school Mormon dude on Poligamy charges..
he supposedly has over 100 children from his harem of 20 wives...
many of whom were barely teenagers when he violated..I mean married them..
eeew.

I asked my wife why more women don't have multiple husbands?
She just stared at me and started to laugh.

possible reason. ;)))

"they have a difficult time as it is with one disappointment, let alone with 2 or 3."

donn you have a very wise wife...i remember having this same discussion once with my husband when he asked me that question (and it was regarding a mormon incident as well)...i told him i could only fall in the toilet because the seat was left up so many times before someone would have to die...he nodded in understanding...

Men would be happier if weemen were happy for them instead of nagging all the time.
We are also cleaner as it takes 10 minutes to wash not 2 hours.

Bless them they are simple souls and therein lies the answer.

Old knundson - Welcome- You are right about the comment. Same as with the no wrinkles.

DR- you must be single.

All sounds like straight forward commonsense to me... whats to worry about?

er.. actually not all men know stuff about tanks. Their underwear may cost $8.95 for a three-pack but they never buy any new underwear, they just keep wearing what they have. And they think a red plastic posing pouch is sexy. Oh yes they do.

The modern man knows the clitoris exists but most would need a road map to find it. They'd need a miners lamp to find the 'G-spot'. They can subject some poor woman to years of jack-rabbit sex and think they're a stuuud!

But the real reason men are never depressed? It is ALWAYS a womans fault.
