  • If Men Are Like Dogs, Then Women Are Like Cats


    I heard this analogy from my company first sergeant.  He was fond of giving us life lessons during our liberty briefs, and after reading this post I remembered one of his funnier spiels.  

    Women are like cats and not dogs.  

    Dogs are simple, obedient creatures. If you see a dog doing something wrong and scold him, he will not do it again. Dogs can be trained and become loyal companions.

    Cats on the other hand, you can never trust. You cannot teach a cat to do tricks the same way you can a dog. Cats do not have the same obedience, and they do as they please. Sure you can gain a cat's favor by giving it food or something, but that affection is very short-lived. Cats are only out for themselves. As the first sergeant said, you can catch a cat sitting on a window ledge and throw it down nine times telling it not to go back up there. As soon as you turn your back, what does that cat do? Hops back up for the tenth time. Why? Because you can't trust cats. They do what they want. And women are like cats; wine them, dine them, turn your back and they're off doing whatever. Beware of women.

    Alternatively, a drill instructor from boot camp had this to say about women: "You can spend money on dinner, a movie, flowers and everything else only to wind up with a kiss and blue balls." Or you could invest in a prostitute and get laid for sure. Prostitutes are really just social workers doing guys a favor.  

    Gotta love military philosophy.
