History offers many mystical stories about the female. May be as children we learn to love by the stories we hear.  How can we not love the center character of our childhood tales? After all they are our mothers, daughters and best friends. Wisdom prevailing we men should keep in mind we would not existence without them. Their indispensability makes them mysterious, we lust for their attention, we ask them for permission to marry us and are drunk with their majesty. Their shapes attract us, their smell excite us and their leaving make us sorrowful. Yet we know so little about them. Often our angry comments are less than complimentary. It is say "we cant live with them and cant live without them". 

We intuitively  know that life would be dull and meaningless without women. Yet the quality of life's experiences is solely dependent on the quality of the communications between man and woman. LIKE IT OR NOT ...there is only two sexes we are it!  There are no "alien sexed" beings for us to chose.I have listened to conversations among both males and females about "men" and "women" that implied such a view. On occasion I get the idea that each group possess a hidden hope to fulfill. They each act as if they wished there were a third sexual group from which to select.

It is almost as if they harbor a desire for another sexual group to satisfy their carnal desires as a hope to achieve happiness. This group of course would have to be outside of the gay community; an independent sexual category that possess an "organic physicality" that are "missing" in men and women. What those organs would be be, I don't know and I am sure I would not like to witness them.

I have sat through conversations, listening to the statements, "the trouble with men is" and "the trouble with women is" etc. Well, who else could there be to have trouble with? Of course, women are a problem to understand! Of course, men are a problem to understand! Consider this idea, when a female experiences natural bleeding every month, this is mark of "life giving". When a male experiences bleeding not only is it "unnatural" but is a sign of pain, injury and possibly of death! Talk about a different point of view. Note that both views are natural for the respect genders.

It is this "problem causing pair" (male and female) that gives life to each of us, both figuratively and literally. No births can take place without them. If either of them totally vanished we would have not life, or fun,
