We men are fragile beings

[horseless carriage]

Actually, it's the price (and size) of their toys that separate the men and the boys.

In ancient Greece, it appears that it took a crowbar......

In the 20th century the same could be achieved with a small car. An MGB GT V8, to be precise.

Hold on a sec .... didn't the V8 GT have a slight bulge in the bonnet? Mine was a bit tattier than that but I did manage to pull in a fair share of birds with it.

There's a big difference between the point of a knife and a blunt instrument but both are deadly.

I'd have to agree that men are fragile critters. I think we all are in that category. Humans respond to their emotions-that's kind of why they are human. Most men have the ability to become "John Wayne" for a time. When necessary most men can ably perform in war. But that's a role men can play only for a time. And what they do, when they have to, is something they carry for life. The idea that men can do whatever, and it has no impact on them is more psychopath than manly. Some may want men to be he-men, dominant, aggressive, all the time, but those characteristics are those of wife beaters.

I know little about automobiles in general, but since you joined the forum, Horseless, my love for MG's has grown ten-fold.

Well, y'all do wear out long before women.

I'm so tempted to respond to that but I ain't a-gonna' do it any which way.

Well thank you.

The MGC, had the power bulge, it was really an MGB with a Austin Healey, three litre, six cylinder, inline engine. It made no sense really, the V8 in the MGB still beat it for grunt.

Jessica (our MG) says thank you.

If women did not pander so much to the whims of men, they might not be such softies.

 

[Mr. Ed]

Women last longer because men do not.

Not necessarily!
