Food Joke

Because I’m a man Because I’m a man, when I catch a cold I need someone to bring me soup and take care of me while I lie in bed and moan. You`re a woman - you never get as sick as I do, so for you this isn`t a problem. Because I’m a man, I can be relied upon to purchase basic groceries, like milk or bread. Don’t expect me to find exotic items like ‘cumin’ or ‘tofu’. For all I know, these are the same thing. And never, ever expect me to purchase anything for which "feminine hygiene product" is a euphemism. Because I’m a man, there’s no need to ask me what I`m thinking about. The answer is always ‘sex’, ‘cars’ or ‘sport’. Because I’m a man, I don’t want to visit your mother or have her come visit us or talk to her when she calls or think about her any more than I have to. Whatever you got her for Mother`s Day is OK - I don`t need to see it. And don`t forget to pick up something for my mother too. Because I’m a man, you don`t have to ask me if I liked the movie. If you`re crying at the end of it, chances are I didn`t. And if you’re feeling amorous afterwards, then I’ll certainly remember the name and recommend it to others. Because I’m a man, I think what you`re wearing is fine. I thought what you were wearing 5 minutes ago was also fine. Either pair of shoes is fine. With or without the belt, it looks fine. Your hair is fine. You look fine. Can we just go now? Because I’m a man, and this is the year 2005, I will share equally in the housework. You just do the laundry, the cooking, the cleaning, the vacuuming and the dishes. I`ll do the rest, like looking for my socks.
