More from the Bert Show
Another interesting morning on The Bert Show. This morning among some of the great topics they hit on, one was "What Drives You Crazy About Women?" This is opening up trouble, I think but it was funny. You would think that there were tons of guys calling in listing the hundreds of things that women do that drive them crazy. The truth is that more women were calling in then men. I am not sure if it was because there are too many scared boyfriends and husbands out there who do not want to be in the dog house when their significant other hears what they have to say, or if it is that as women we really have a bone to pick with each other.

Here are a few things that women were calling in and listing-

* Women are not supportive of each others career decisions. Ex- If a woman decides to work rather than stay home with their children, some will accuse each other of not being good mothers.... I better not get started here.
* If you compare female friendships to male friendships, women pent up more frustration and anger towards one another, they can be overly critical, rude, disrespectful and plan petty.
* Women turn into completely different people when an attractive man walks in the room.
* When women get drunk they tend to take off their clothes. Now, I have to disagree with this- I know more men who have taken their clothes off after drinking too much, rather than women.

It is interesting because I think some of this is true. I have never heard a guy talk about how one of his friends always has to have the latest style in clothes, must have new shoes and has been looking for the perfect dining room set. I have never heard a man say one of their friends is always trying to be the center of attention or is always trying to show everyone up. I have heard girls say it. Not so much now, but at one time I heard it a lot more.

With all that said, Do you want to know what I love best about women? They are great at adapting to changes in life. They know how to get stains out of my favorite shirt, they know what it means for a women to get married, they remember important events in your life, they celebrate life's joys, they are strong in spirit, they will stay up with you until 4 AM when your heart is broken and when you have the worst possible day- ever, they hug you and listen to every detail without offering any solutions to fix it. They just listen.
