Excellent piece. But gotcha on the last one. Here are a few in defense of my own gender.
1. I can grow a beard and be called "distinguished", "wise", and "masculine". A woman growing a beard would also be called "masculine" and can cause a riot.
2. I can walk on the streets wearing nothing but underwear and my boots, and go absolutely unnoticed (or even get some sympathy). A woman in the same situation would cause accidents piling up.
3. A woman becomes pregnant and delivers a baby, and no one (except her family and friends) cares. I become pregnant and deliver a baby - it's world headline news (this actually happened near Portland, OR - no, not me - for the love of God!!!! Another man became pregnant and delivered a baby a couple of years ago).
And I can go on with the list. I know the above three (and any list I could produce) are utter nonsense. But all in good humor (and with utmost respect to women and their femininity that defines our identity as men!) --SG
