This sparked something H and I were watching on TV the other night. The question was "have you ever wished you were a member of the opposite sex?"

I sure know I have wished that oodles of times. But when I asked my H he said "never, not even once".

As a young girl I remember thinking how unfair life was and how I wished I was a boy. To be able to have the freedom that my mother seemed to allow the boys in the family and not the girls. After all, we couldn't take care of ourselves if something was to happen, right?

Quite often my H would use the saying "it's a man's world" and I would respond by saying "don't I know it, I've been living in it long enough". As much as society has come a long, long way since I was a kid, women are still reminded every day of our lives how much of a "weaker" sex we really are - some good, some not so good.
