Thought for the day:

Q. Why are they always Founding Fathers?

– Why are they never Founding Mothers?

____________________________________________

On reflection, of course, I think I may have the answer to this.

1. We women talk too much. We talk too much in between thinking and task accomplishment.
2. Historically, we calm the waters, keep the peace, ensure smooth running, etc, etc.
3. Latterly, we spend most of our time mopping up milk.

[Merely starter points for discussion… on the rights and wrongs of where men and ladies differ: more to come!]
