The Planets

Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus. That was a best seller book years ago. It summarized that although men and women were both from the human race, there were some innate differences between the sexes. I totally agree. One of the differences that stands out the most is about information. Specifically, directions and instructions. For some reason men are less likely to ask for help when they are having difficulty finding their way. Many of us women have been in the situation of driving around aimlessly, because their husband/boyfriend/any male person, will not pull over and just ask for directions. They feel that some divine intervention will come along and guide them on their way. It is just not going to happen. Pull over. Ask. It won't make you any less of a man. The next difference is reading instructions. Every product comes with instructions that someone was paid a lot of money to write. OK, sometimes they may be confusing or vague, but they still help. Why can't men just read them before they start to put together an item. The instructions are in the box, no more than 4 inches away from you. Maybe if you read them, before you started the project, it would have taken half the time and you would not have to wonder forever that there are 3 screws left over that should have been used.
