The Sense of A Woman

- Bhupendra Kainthola

Whoever said, men are from Mars and women from Venus, wasn't entirely off the mark. Men are different from women, we know.  But can you tell ?

It's easy if you are a keen observer.  First thing in the morning. The toothpaste. Women squeeze it from the top, men from the bottom. Is that why bottom-pinching comes easily to some men !

The apron. Women tend to tie the bow behind the back, men in front.

The match stick. A woman strikes it away from her and a man towards himself. Psychologists say women, generally, are more fearful of burns.

There are other amazing things about the fair sex.  A woman doesn't begin looking for her keys until she reaches the door.  A man has his keys out before he gets to the front gate.

Ever noticed, in restaurants,  a woman gently dabs her mouth with a table napkin while a man tends to wipe his lips with the napkin.

Ever seen a woman throw a stone?  She stands on tiptoe throwing stiff-armed from the shoulder.  A man throws from the wrist with his arm out to the side.

Women who smoke tend to leave a longer stub -- men puff a cigarette as far as it goes. In gambling, women stop after a modest win - men go for the kill and often end up losing more.

More women use zebra crossings. Men are more frequent jay walkers.

In a relationship, a man goes for a woman's beauty before selecting her as a mate. A woman is usually satisfied with other qualities.  This is why you often see ordinary looking successful men with knock-out-looking wives. A woman's love is total , a man's is skin-deep.

Writer Mark Twain's hero, Tom Swayer once dressed up as a girl for a prank.  He tried to fool a woman he met.  She found him out by throwing a cabbage into his lap.  He gave himself away by catching it clapping his legs together-- a girl throws her knee apart to catch it in her skirt.

Got it ?

Women do it their way. Differently. So better not ask why can't a woman be more like a man.
