Frustration of Men

Today I experienced the frustration of men when women ask them for opinions. We are self-contridicting creatures.

Case 1:
My business partner asked me opinion on an artwork. I suggested changing the text but she said "I want to keep the text. You got other suggestions?" I repeated, "I'm fine with everything except the text. Change it and you'll be fine." She replied, "But I want to keep the text leh...how?". I kept my silent. End of converstation.

Case 2:
Colleague: Should I have kids?
Me: Yes you should.
Colleague: But I can't imagine myself having kids.
Me: Then don't have it.
Colleague: But everyone around me want me to have kids, all except me.
Me: If you are okay, then have kids lor.
Colleague: But it's tough having kids.
Me: Up to you. Sometimes the more you think, you will never have kids.
Colleague: I'm getting old liao. Cannot afford to think so long.
Me: Then have kids. Don't think.
Colleague: But my back got problem. My husband and I are like two big children.
Me: Then don't have kids.
Colleague: I don't know. Should I have kids?

Case 1 & 2 happened in just 2 hrs span... Spare me!
