Men

I didn't know men were so privileged... or oblivious...

IT'S GOOD TO BE A MAN

BY?

-- Your last name stays put.

-- The garage is all yours.

-- Wedding plans take care of themselves.

-- Chocolate is just another snack.

-- You can be president.

-- You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park.

-- Car mechanics tell you the truth.

-- You don't care if someone notices your new haircut.

-- The world is your urinal.

-- You never have to drive to another gas station because this one's just too icky.

-- Same work... more pay.

-- Wrinkles add character.

-- You don't have to leave the room to make emergency adjustments.

-- Wedding Dress $5000; Tux rental $100.

-- People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them.

-- The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected.

-- New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet.

-- Your pals can be trusted never to trap you with: "So, notice anything different?"

-- One mood, ALL the damn time.

-- Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat.

-- You know stuff about tanks.

-- A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase.

-- You can open all your own jars.

-- Dry cleaners and hair stylists don't rob you blind.

-- You can leave the motel bed unmade.

-- You can kill your own food.

-- You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness.

-- Your underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack.

-- If you are 34 and single, nobody notices.

-- You can quietly enjoy a car ride from the passenger's seat.

-- Three pairs of shoes are more than enough.

-- You don't have to clean your apartment if the maid is coming.

-- You can quietly watch a game with your buddy for hours without ever thinking: "He must be mad at me."

-- You don't mooch off other's desserts.

-- You can drop by to see a friend without having to bring a little gift.

-- If another guy shows up at the party in the same outfit, you just might become lifelong friends.

-- You are not expected to know the names of more than five colors.

-- You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt.

-- You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes.

-- You don't have to shave below your neck.

-- You can "do" your nails with a pocket-knife.

-- You have freedom of choice concerning growing a mustache.

-- Christmas shopping can be accomplished for 25 relatives, on December 24th, in 45 minutes.
