Female Characteristic For M 'Lady Ernestine Poem by ivor or ivor.e hogg

Women’s minds are different
They do not think the way men do.
Present no reasoned argument
they merely state their point of view

They seem to know instinctively
and are invariably correct.
Which grieves me but I must agree
It is what I come to expect.

Intuition is their guide.
A skill that men sadly lack.
We always tend to look outside
for reasons we can carry back.

To justify the things we do
and wonder why our ladies smile.
Men’s foolishness is nothing new.
Why should the ladies change their style.

What men consider logically
before they can make up their minds.
The ladies discount completely.
Their wisdom of a different kind.

They tolerate our foolish pride.
because they are superior.
A fact that men have long denied
It’s not a case of either or.

For women know without a doubt
What is important what is not.
They need no time to work it out.
A talent that no man has got.
