The revised version of an email I recieved.

I received this original forward email from my father-in-law, then I typed up a
counteract to this email, pointing out that women are just as "happy" and have it
easy too. Enjoy.

Men Are Just Happier People-- What do you expect from such simple creatures?
Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves.
You can be President. You can never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a
water park. The world is your urinal (GROSS). You don't have to stop and think of which
way to turn a nut on a bolt.

Same work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress $5000. Tux rental-$100.
People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them. One mood all the time.

A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase. You can open all your own jars.
Everything on your face stays its original color.

The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades. You only have to shave your face and
neck. You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.

No wonder men are happier. Send this to the women who can handle it and to the men
who will enjoy reading it.

Here is where I counteract the MENs happiness, and that women can also do these and
more!

“You can be President.” !!!! Women can be president too! (vote for Hillary or Ms. Rice) =)
A woman can choose to change or keep their last name or hyphenate it, they are happy
to have the option. The garage belongs to the wife, she parks her car in there and has it
all organized to her liking, you are parked out side. =) Women like to plan the wedding, so
they are happy too. If they don’t, they hire a wedding planner and “the plans take care of themselves”.

Being pregnant IS a happy moment. Women are happy to hold the gift of life, men are
sad they can't. =) Women have the helpful phrase, Lefty loosy, righty tighty” to help
remember the turning of a spout or screwing a nut.

“Same work more pay” not necessarily any more, the IRS pays by grade level and
not by gender for pay. David’s Bridal sells wedding dresses for $99, for happy women.
So it is not just the tux rental that is $100. I know of women starring at men’s chest
while talking, they are either distracted by the men’s pecks and strong frame, or notice
chest hair poking out of a buttoned shirt. =) “One mood all the time”, NOT! Men have
their temper and lazy mood, and steamed mood…

Now days a five day vacation, men bring more than one bag, the other bag is for all
of his techno gadgets, the laptop, iPod, cell phone, game player, mini radio, etc.

“The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades” =) Only if the hair stays around
for decades to keep the same hairstyle. LOL. Gotcha!

Pass this on to the Men you think are tough enough to read this and to women you
know will get a good laugh.
