A man walked into a bar and sat beside a lady. She said “I haven’t seen you around her before.”
The man replied “I just got out of prison.”
“Why were you in prison?” asked the lady.
“I chopped my wife up with an ax.”
The lady excitedly responded “Oh, you’re single then.”
I teach literature.
We go through Shakespeare, a couple of plays per year.
The sixth graders invariably, indignantly say of Taming of the Shrew or Romeo and Juliet, Why would anyone let their fathers tell them whom to marry?
Girls class is so feminized, so socialized to hate femininity and masculinity we just discuss.
Boys class, one sentence: When you guys have a daughter, do you want to have a say in it, or will you allow the possibility of her marrying some dope and becoming abandoned and poor?
End of discussion. They’re mine from there.
That is pretty close to the truth. I worked for 25 years in a California prison, and I used to wonder how many of those criminals got good looking women, and for the most part, the women got treated like crap. I guess some women think life with a bad guy is exciting or something.
