Women and food

What is the connection I ask ?

Everybody knows the connection between men and food. Men, generally, love to eat. Can we safely assume, that women like to feed ? After all, as the saying goes, "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach."

If you think that is right, then you will be wrong.

Based on one of my recent experiences, I think women are fairly, if not overly, conscious of what they eat and how much they eat. Not to mention where they eat and with whom they eat.

Since men are thought of as gluttons, there is an inevitable comparison between men and women. Men are always telling women how little they eat and making fun of them. Obviously when the time does come when men don't eat as much as they normally do and women eat as much as they always do, we reach the equilibrium point.

Given that this is such a rare sight, women are quick to pounce on it, shout it out loud and rub the men's face in it.

The particularly nice women are the one's who are actually curious to know why the men didn't eat as much as they normally do. Nice one's like this very new friend of mine.

This friend took a few of us guys out for dinner. For some reason, we guys and she ate the same amount of food. And she was curious to know why. We did reassure her that nothing was wrong. But the bottom line is, she pointed out that we ate the same amount of food.

In conclusion, I don't know the connection between women and food. But we have established that the nice women are concerned about how much the men eat.

Next week, I am taking her and few other friends out. My social experiment continues. If I come up with something interesting, expect to see me back here gloating about it, all the way to glory and back.
