WOMEN ARE LIKE APPLES

[whistle]

Women are like apples on trees: the best ones are at the top of the tree.
Most men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of
falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that
aren't as good, but easy.......
So the apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in
reality, they're amazing. They just have to wait for the right man to come along -
the one who's brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree. Share
this with other women who are good apples - even those who have already been
picked! And remember - Men are like a fine wine. They start out as grapes, and it's
up to a good woman to stomp the crap out of them until they turn into
something acceptable to have dinner with.

Don't beat me up over this please. A woman sent it to me and I'm just passing it along.

5. "Don't beat me up over this" but you have your popcorn ready I see.

Fine, so you want to discuss the message not the messenger? What exactly are we supposed to comment on? The stereotyping of both sexes that does nothing to edify anyone?

As for the "Stomp the crap out of them" sentiment? Yeah, that was in my wedding vows doncha know. :sarcasm:

:wtf:

Men are also like cheese. The good ones often smell the worst.

(Upon hearing she is leaving the church because the pastor won't allow a union meeting there)

Pastor: We're gonna miss your voice in the choir, Norma Rae.

Norma Rae: Well, you're gonna hear it raised up somewhere else.

God I love that scene.

You just reminded me of it.

They're made of bread and have cinnamon sprinkled on and sometimes a sugary glaze and you buy them at the coffee house.

20. Women are like apples

They should passively wait and be picked by a man. Once they've been picked, the 'good apples' "stomp the crap out of them." Those devious women should be passive.

Interesting. Not a lesson I'd teach my daughter.

I still rememeber my mother advising to not sit quietly and wait for a man to pick me, (or not sit passively and wait to be picked for anything) but choose myself, which I did.

I'm 14 years happily married and not encouraging my daughter to be passive and wait around until she's "picked" by a male for anything but to empower herself and "own it" for herself. (I'm not referring to "owning" a male, but owning her rights to opportunity and success. She's only 11).

21. I had a friend

who ingrained into her girls that if they didn't have a boyfriend, they were "less than perfect".
Her girls had boyfriends from the time they were 10 years old.
She even gave me "sage" advice that I should allow my girls to have boyfriends at the age of 11 because then they would always brush their hair, teeth, care how they look, want nice clothes (I had a tomboy).
I did "pass" on her advice however.
Fast forward to today.
Her daughters both dropped out of high school. One is into herself, sleeps with anyone. One is very dark--into the Goth culture, drugs, etc.
But gee, they both have boyfriends so all is not lost.
My oldest is in college and my youngest is #2 in her Senior class. One side note, my oldest did have a baby her senior year, but was pretty smart about throwing out the loser-boy.
See! Boyfriends do make all the difference.

22. Does this mean the frying pan analogy is dead?

I don't remember it, yeah, that's the picture. I don't remember.
