Has the world gone mad?

Postby Workingman » 30 Jun 2018, 11:46

A university in Australia is offering an MA in "mansplaining". This is when a man explains an issue to a woman in a manner regarded as condescending or patronising. The course should be compulsory for all men as it is an essential skill.

Another course, women only, should be "womsuggesting". This is where women continually hint to men at things they would like, but when they never get them they complain loudly and with tears. Another compulsory course, which is subtitled "MEN DO NOT TAKE HINTS".

I'll get me coat. ;) :o :cute:

Sorry the title of the second one is slightly misleading. It should be.

MEN DO NOT RECOGNISE HINTS

"I saw some nice wallpaper in town today."

"This carpet could do with a clean, or something."

"Are these cushions getting a bit lumpy?"

"The curtains are starting to fade."

.........

"Look, if you want to decorate save up and do it any time you want, meanwhile the batteries in the remote need changing. They are in the top drawer, two AA, and don't get the high power ones, the cheap ones will do."

"Ånd I would like a cheese and onion sandwich with a grind of pepper and a splash of Worcester, today, thanks."

Women and men. :shock: ;)

Has the world gone mad?

Well. if it hasn't, it certainly is going mad, in my opinion.

I just can't believe some of the things I hear or read about so frequently now.
