I was once told that someone tried to write a book on women but he couldn't do it. He left all the pages blank and said that women were the one of the hardest topic to explain. Is this true? If it is, then what the name of that author?

It’s a difficult question for any man to answer… Whether to follow his dreams no matter what… Or to give in slowly and let life lead you where it will.

This is a joke, Jackson.

There's a similar one. A man finds a lamp and rubs it, and a genie comes out. He says "I'm old. You get one wish, and one wish only. What is it."

And the man says "Oh, wait, I've drawn this map. I wish for everlasting world peace, and particularly, peace between these countries here. Can you do that?

And the genie says "I told you, I'm old. That's too much work. Find an easier wish."

So the man says "Okay, then, I wish I could understand women."

And the genie sighs and says "Show me the map again."

(In other words, creating world peace is easier than understand women.)

Barbara, who answers in American English. My housekeeping skills attest to the truth of the second law of thermodynamics: Left to themselves, things get more and more random!

Thanks for the information, Barbara.

Kind regards, Jackson

Hi Jackson,

I think the actual author of the book does not excist, although it is a very good phrase i think it is made up by someone, but the person who made up this phrase is, when you think deep, the actual author then.

Both men and women are hard to explain as everybody's unique and different from person to person.
