'' Opposites Attract ''



In our species we have both a man and a woman,
A partnership both tried and tested,
Procreation creates another human,
In continuation is what we have invested.

That is the easiest part out of the way,
As male and female really do vary,
It’s not just sexual there’s a vast array,
So why do men find women so scary?

Could it be we are running scared?
Because they’re so difficult to understand,
Their views on life to us are impaired,
Their behaviour can get out of hand.

A trip to the shops can end in tears,
They missed out on that designer dress,
When it rained it confirmed their worst fears,
It’s left them in total distress.

They buy bags, shoes and clothing it just isn’t fair,
When you ask them out for a meal,
They always complain, I have nothing to wear,
What I do have just doesn’t appeal.

It’s the same with food it’s totally barmy,
They’re on a diet but the fridge overflows,
There’s enough in there to feed an army,
They’ll say you can’t go out when it snows?

My hormones are playing up they claim,
What they mean is, I’m in a bad mood,
Never tell them this excuse is lame,
It will do you more harm than good.

Smash a plate you’ll be condemned to Hell,
You are clumsy and dangerous to boot,
But if they do the same in lies they’ll excel,
They’ll make out they don’t care a hoot.

Never try cleaning you just can’t get it right,
Despite your best efforts you’ll fail,
Finding dirt you’ve missed fills them with delight,
Your efforts will be to no avail.

The list is endless it’s a miracle we survive,
Nothing in common I’m afraid is a fact,
So how has our species remained alive?
It’s obvious,
