“St. Valentine’s Day in Japan is a day when women give the special men in their lives boxes of chocolate. To balance out the one-sidedness of this practice, White Day was invented for men to reciprocate such gifts. While Valentine’s Day is an imported convention, White Day (on March 14) is a purely Japanese creation.” - from Kids Web Japan

Tomorrow is a special day for women here in Japan, so I’ve searched for articles about women and found these. Most of these are actually true, in my case.

1. Women keep three different shampoos and two different conditioners in the shower. After a woman showers, the bathroom will smell like a tropical rain forest.
2. If a man goes on a seven-day trip, he’ll pack five days worth of clothes and will wear some things twice; if a woman goes on a seven-day trip she’ll pack 21 outfits because she doesn’t know what she’ll feel like wearing each day.
3. Women have better restrooms. They get the nice chairs and red carpet. Men just get a large bowl to share.
4. Women do NOT want an honest answer to the question, ‘How do I look?’
5. “Oh, nothing,” has an entirely different meaning in woman-language than it does in man-language.
6. Women cannot use a map without turning the map to correspond to the direction that they are heading.
7. All women are overweight by definition; don’t agree with them about it. Women always have 5 pounds to lose, but don’t bring this up unless they really have 5 pounds to gain.
8. If it is not Valentines day and you see a man in a flower shop, you can probably start up a conversation by asking, “What did you do?”
9. Origin of the word “woman” is: woo-man.
10. Women can get out of speeding tickets by pouting. This will get men arrested.
11. It’s okay for women to dance with each other and not be gay. You don’t see straight men dancing together.
12. Women will spend hours dressing up to go out, and then they’ll go out and spend more time checking out other women. Men can never catch women checking out other men; women will always catch men checking out other women.
13. The most embarrassing thing for women is to find another woman wearing the same dress at a formal party. You don’t hear men say, “Oh-my-GOD, there’s another man wearing a black tux, get me outta here!”
