• We got off the Titanic first.

• We can scare male bosses with mysterious gynecological disorder excuses.

• We get to flirt with systems support men who always return our calls, and are nice to us when we blow up our computers.

• We absently hum tunes from musicals without anyone being suspect of our sexuality.

• Our boyfriend's clothes make us look elfin and gorgeous - guys look like complete idiots in ours.

• We can be groupies. Male groupies are stalkers.

• We can cry and get off speeding fines.

• We live longer, so we can be cantankerous old biddies wearing inappropriate clothes and shouting at strangers ... Men die earlier so we get to cash in on the life insurance.

• Taxis stop for us.

• We've never fancied a cartoon character or the central figure in a computer game.

• We don't look like a frog in a blender when dancing.

A friend asked a gentleman how it is that he never married ?

Replied the gentleman, "Well, I guess I just never met the right woman ... I guess I've been looking for the perfect girl."

"Oh, come on now," said the friend, "Surely you have met at least one girl that you wanted to marry."

"Yes, there was one girl .. once. I guess she was the one perfect girl .. the only perfect girl I really ever met. She was just the right everything .. I really mean that she was the perfect girl for me."

"Well, why didn't you marry her," asked the friend.

"She was looking for the perfect man," he said.
