Re: MEN ARE JUST HAPPIER PEOPLE

@dooBdoo Yes you are so right!We have become so sensitive that it is hard to find humor.That is another difference that makes men happier than us.Guys just don't seem to be looking hard for the insult in everything.

Re: MEN ARE JUST HAPPIER PEOPLE

OK if you say so.  But I have known a lot of messed up men in my life who have messed up a lot of other people along the way.

@mousiegirl. Well thank you, I thought it was funny.

I do not get offended easily, and have not lost my sense of humor.

I would be kicked out of the PC force. I am much happier knowing that boys and girls are different.

Re: MEN ARE JUST HAPPIER PEOPLE

I don't know... Good that those who find humor in the post enjoy it... I'm far from being either humorless or being any kind of PC maven. I think it's a concept that's already done and will continue to do a lot of damage, as we, as a society, are forced to shift everything in order to comply with endless doses of cultural relativism, as though there are no absolutes... All that said, I didn't find it funny... There might be some humor and some truth in there, but it was predictable and over generalized both men and women while perpetuating perceptions that aren't useful, roles that are becoming archaic and essentially gives permission for those perceptions and those roles to continue unquestioned... as though they're a 'given' and are a good thing... In my view, they're not...

I guess people who can personally relate to that list will find the humor in it and people who don't, won't.  IMO, it has little to do with being PC or not.  :-)

I understand why folks see humor in it... I guess I just think it's unfortunate...

Re: MEN ARE JUST HAPPIER PEOPLE

None of the things on the list really have anything to do with actual happiness. But I do understand it was meant to be amusing.
