They may not all work though

I once read someone's theory that when men were hunters the best ones could concentrate on the track of a beast without deviating until they caught it. The women were gathering nuts and berries and so on, so the most successful were the ones whose attention was all around them and they noticed all the ones that were nearly ripe and could go back to them later. The best hunters and best gatherers ate better, mated with each other, and had more healthy children. Survival of the fittest.

Which reminds me of something I read today which propounded the theory that the most successful black athletes are descended from slaves, because they have such strong genes.

I think men are the far superior race !!¬! love them

I love whiskers on kittens and brown paper packages but I don't think they are superior!

Are men a separate race?
That explains a lot...

I do think men are much more superior to us , their brains are bigger and they are stronger

Yes, dear. Keep taking the medicine.

Oooo ANAGRAM do you think I should is that the same one you are on

nonu darling. How can you think men are superior? They have a vital bit missing! A portion of a chromosone. They are xy whereas we are xx

Well this a first , being called darling on gransnet , I think men ARE SUPERIOR ,

nonu
Your train of thought is a definite nono

Nonu must be a man...

If you really think men are superior, I wonder what that says about you? Either that you are, in fact, a man, or that you, personally are inferior. Same thing really.

At the risk of being boring I think men are the superior race, I certainly think that of my husband of forty years , guess some of you can beat that ?

nonu
Please stop taking the piss.

a] I"m not a man and I don"t think I am inferior , but surely one is entitled to one"s opinions without being put down . but I seem to be wrong . gosh

Words fail me!!

Oh dear! What did I unintentionally start?

Well, jeni, if you will quote William Dunbar!

Timor gransnetters conturbit me!

'conturbat', I think...

I thought it was conturbit but my source says conturbit!?
Anyway it's late. Bed!

When?

Isn't "conturbat" a past tense?

If is the conturbation is in the past, you are presumably dead and beyond being conturbed by it.

If we want to be pedantic about the poem, it is called "Lament for the makars" not makers.
