What Women Can Get Away With, Part II

"What Women Can Get Away With"
Part II*

*We can cry to get out of speeding fines.

The thrill of surprising people by being good at darts...
and pool... and football.

We live longer, so we can be cantankerous old biddies
wearing inappropriate clothes and shouting at strangers...
men die earlier so we get to cash in on the life insurance.

We know that games are fun, but don't believe there's
a direct correlation between the size of our scores and
the size of our... womanhood.

Taxis stop for us.

We get drunk quicker and cheaper.

We have no desire to arrange our possessions in
alphabetical order. Ever.

We've never fancied a cartoon character or the central
figure in a computer game.

It does not enhance our social standing to understand
the inner workings of a 'ruck' (or any other football thing).
But we look incredibly cool if we do.
