![]() Some Advantages of Being FemaleA Poem by Elton Camp![]() XX Trumps XY Every Time![]() Some Advantages of Being Female By Elton Camp Women have more choices in life An exemption from so much strife To be a homemaker is thought fine But a househusband’s a ball of slime She stays home when the kids are sick A man is a bum if he tries that trick If a woman’s upset it’s okay to cry For a man to show emotion won’t fly Whenever a woman is as ugly as hell She fixes up so that nobody can tell When a man doesn’t look very good, There’s nothing to do even if he would A woman can work for very little dough A man would be a poor provider if so A woman needn’t chase a burglar away “You see about that noise,” she will say It’s only a man who has to wash the car And he has to remove the lid from a jar He has to get stuff off of the top shelf Even if his wife is far from being an elf A man is expected to hold the heavy door And then allow a woman to go in before When a couple go to a restaurant on a date The man pays for both his and her plate Whenever the tire on the sedan goes flat He is the only one who sees about that When the garbage is to take to the street A woman never performs that little feat Women have it over men in every way And then will outlive them many a day Advantages of being male I plan to tell So check back and read that one as well
