WHY

I read men are from Mars and women from Venus, now I am living it. Question that bogs me down is ‘do I speak Chinese or an unknown dialect’ or why do things so evident to me seem far fetched to men?

Why our simple life suddenly appears to be a complicated puzzle, which none of us can solve?

Why do your jokes hurt me and my comments seem taunts to you?

Why is that for every second of joy we bring to each other, we inflict many sorrows on each other?

Why are we trading our beautiful time for scorn and mistrust?

Why are we not appreciating the differences and celebrating the wonderful union of diversity?


The uniqueness of genders baffles us. Why men stare at women and why women blush at a man’s comment?

How God created such wonderfully different beings to survive and co exist. They sometimes admire their differences and at others they want to scream their heads out. The battle of the sexes, as the high rated Television shows call them, is actually a strife for recognition one seeks in the life of the other. How ironical?

They go through all human emotions from rock bottom sorrows to heights of joy, from inhuman hatred to devotional love. The tug of war to prove the supremacy of one gender over the other continues along with seeking comforts in each other’s arms.
It seems that they speak different languages, as if they have descended from distinct planets. Why women ask of romance and men think about sex? While men consider football, women want to shop. Why destruction is a manly sport and delicateness a female adornment? While women think you of draping in the house, men plan the Saturday night hangout at the bar. Are just gender differences or our we referring to specimens from absolutely far off planets
