I say....Get Your Own Chips
Published on July 25, 2007 By KFC Kickin For Christ In Writing
My son wrote this as an assignment. Not sure who will like this more, the women or the men!



It’s a problem that affects all Americans, no, affects all humanity worldwide. It is a predicament that spreads from generation to generation that puzzles mankind. It is the ultimate riddle for man- what to do with your woman.

For centuries man has debated, not on how to treat a woman of favor, who our mothers have always taught to treat with respect and honor, but instead with how to deal them. Which we know isn’t always a fine walk on the walk-way of heaven. Dr. Edwin G. Boring of Harvard University says that, “the great woman problem is the great man problem.”

So, I’ve decided to present my own modest proposal on how to deal with this preposterous woman problem for once and for all. I propose that we enlist all females on the planet to take over the man’s role in the workplace so that the men of the world can sit back relax and “raise the children” as women have been doing since the beginning of time. It is the perfect solution for the women problem.

It has been proven in studies (innovations-report.com) that women can handle more stress then men, or at least handle it better, “Women seem to be less susceptible than men to stress and serious stress-related illnesses because of the protective properties of the sex hormone estrogen.” So, with this in mind, we as men should allow women to conduct the men’s job of taking care of the family and providing in financial areas. If they can handle the stress better then why not allow them to be the moneymakers of the home?

Just in the United States alone there are 147.8 million females, nearly one-half of the total population (census.gov). Out of that number only 774,000 earned Bachelors degrees this past year while 2.9 million participated in high school athletics. This is a simple lesson for men: we need to get these women out of the recreational “fun” times that most of them are enjoying and enlist them to colleges to earn more degrees to get higher paying jobs so that they can support us.

For years women have been the child-raisers and have been “stay-at-home-moms.” It’s now time that men take over that role. According to the US Census bureau, there are over 11 million stay-at-home-moms, while only 189,000 stay-at-home-dads. It’s not that dad’s don’t want to stay at home. One woman said, "My husband was willing to stay home, but we couldn't survive off my salary, so I stayed home." We have to let women have our higher paying offices so we can have the lazy boy recliners at home and enjoy this dream job.

The men in this world have a simple solution to a problem that has subsisted over time. The problem of what to do with the woman has been solved. I’m more then willing to look at other proposals that come up, if any at all, but I think that this fits as the best way to solve our woman problem. The woman problem is no longer man’s greatest problem as Dr. Boring suggests. Now man’s greatest problem lies in waiting for his woman to come home to fetch him a bag of chips.



and I say...."ya...... right! I'll get right on it."

I am a stay at home hubby, it ain't no picnic, wash the clothes, clean the home, an everyday job, do the dishes, shop for food, pay the bills, do the gardening, I fired the gardener, except to mow the lawn. Prune the trees and roses. water certain plants indoors and out, and most of all look pretty for my wife when she comes home to a hot home cooked meal!

Right, because raising the children is a relaxing job!

Still don't really understand exactly what the "problem" is...

got a big smile outa me here MM. Good one! I came home today from getting a gal from the airport to find out that my husband did a load of laundry for me, hung out to dry and everything! Didn't even ask him!! Usually I'm the laundry doer so this was a biggie.

I hope this was a joke. He can't be serious. More women than men get Bachelors Degrees. Many women would love to be stay at home moms and aren't able to financially. I am a work at home mother and believe me, I have a lot more stress than most. I never get to punch out and sit down in a recliner and relax. My job is on call 24/7. One of my friends said that caring for her children is the hardest thing she has ever done and that includes law school. Let him care for the kids, change the poopy diapers, listen to the incessant crying and whining. Let him spend the day with a toddler who cries whenever you decide that ten rounds of itsy bitsy spider just wasn't enough. Then let his wife come home and wonder why the house isn't spotless because "you have nap time to get that done".

Well I wish him luck in finding a wife if this is still a single son. I don't know that I would advertise this position until she is already hopelessly in love with him.

When the white man discovered this country Indians were running it.  No taxes no debt, women did all the work.  White man thought he could improve on a system like this. - Cherokee Saying.

I realize your son was being satirical, KFC, so I can't be irritated about this TOO badly. Still, as his momma, you oughtta give him a jawful for the idea that women are sitting back, relaxing, and raising the children...lol!

One of my biggest pet peeves is when people ask if my wife (a SAHM) works. I start out with "well, if I said she didn't work, she'd KILL me! LOL!

Next time he's home for the holidays tell him y'all will switch places for the festive occasion. Then prop your feet up in the living room while he's shoving dressing in the nether regions of a turkey. That'll teach him!

ha!! Ya...like this one Gid. I may just do this. Yes David is just being satricial as you said. In fact the way things are going, I could quite easily see him as the stay home dad while his wife to be goes out. He's a writer who spends alot of time writing at home while his girlfriend is going the reporter route. He's actually written things for her reporting.

Besides all that, he's the neat one. He quite often goes to her apartment and cleans it for her.....including scrubbing the tub.
