Topic: Communication
Lecturer: Esteemed P
I'd like to start off this lecture by directing your attention to the topic: Boys vs Girls. I do not wish to mislead anyone. These series of lectures are not about who is better, boys or girls, but rather on the differences between the two sexes. However, I have entitled it as I have, because I know that everything in life is a competition. I will try to remain unbiased but it will be difficult as I have, since birth, been aware of the universal truth that boys suck and girls rule
A male peer of mine commented on something a few weeks ago that I have been pondering ever since. He, being a male and older than me, decided to impart what he obviously thought was a great pearl of wisdom. (Thanks buddy but I've really got on quite fine until now without your 'astute' observations into the female psyche. I am, after all, a girl and have been for the past 22 years so you would think I would have some idea of what's going on.) I appreciated that he cared enough about me to instruct and guide me, become a mentor if you will, but I was not %100 about this particular piece of advice. He said that sometimes girls don't want you to help them with their problems but rather, that they just want someone to listen to them. I would disagree slightly with that and say sometimes, as a girl, I don't even care if you are listening or not. I just need someone there so I don't look like a rambling lunatic having a conversation with myself. I don't need any response from you at all, I just need you to sit there so that if someone passes by they will think I'm conversing with you.
I must apologise if this is a rude shock to anyone. It is not true in all circumstances and I'm certain nobody else would be so terribly inconsiderate. Now class, any questions or comments? I'm not yet a mother or a wife so I know that I'm not yet Always Right.
