1. Remember in old movies when women used to swoon and "take to the bed" for days at a time? That never happens. We're stronger than that. That being said, if we ever decide to "take to the bed" for days at a time, there's not a thing you can do about it.
2. Sometimes we think we really understand men. Then we regain consciousness.
3. Superskinny women really irritate us. We hate when they say, "Sometimes I just forget to eat." Now, I've forgotten my anniversary and where I parked my car. But I've never forgotten to eat.
4. We do like to have sex, just not at midnight when we have to get up at the crack of dawn to feed two kids, three dogs, and a pair of fat goldfish.
5. We'll gladly agree to stop complaining about our "time of the month" if men will kindly take over the little chores of childbearing, morning sickness, and postpartum emotional swings. Deal?
6. Women really do want to be on time. It's just that everything starts so darned early.
7. We know high heels are sexy, but we'll take our comfy black Uggs any day of the week.
8. Homespun wisdom from someone who knows: Just because we're southern belles doesn't mean we have bats in our belfries.
9. We really do like to cook. It's just that we cooked so much for our boyfriends before we got married that we're sick of being in the kitchen. Sorry you missed it.
10. Men are free to think they're the boss, as long as they know we're the chairman of the board.

They always took to their beds didn't they! 
I know you may not think this, but the less you eat the less you want.
I have forgotten to eat in the past, when I was very thin.
I don't ever forget these days,
I make a note of it in my chocolate.

Actually the reason I remember to eat most of the time is simply that I have to cook for other people When I was living where the only other person was a baby who was on formula at the time, I didn't cook. Every few days I would go somewhere with my sister or nip over to Carrs and buy a sandwich or whatever. . sometimes I'd buy food and plan on cooking it, but I just .. couldn't get into it.
Cooking and eating are more social events. I'll eat if I have to, because of the medicine I'm taking, or whatever .. Well, I made a really good sandwhich for myself, once, that was about two weeks ago. No one else was here, there were no plans on making anything for them to eat later, nothing .. it was almost perverted .. but I kind of liked it.
