Gender differences have always fascinated me, as it does most folks, I presume. I've collected a lot of funnies about the subject, so here's another post in this recurring series. Now, remember I LOVE men. I also have a HIGH respect for women. I know that there are way more differences AMONG men and AMONG women than there are BETWEEN men and women as a group. The stereotypes can by funny, though, and you obviously need a laugh. So take these as they are intended, just plain fun.
So which gender has a better deal? Read for yourself, and yes, I noticed that the men's list of advantages is much longer. So I made up for it with the Thought of the Day.
