Woman is a miracle of divine contradictions

When I read this theme, I thought just one thing – HOW TRUE!!!
A mail that I had come across a while ago popped into my mind that promptly reconfirmed the saying by Jules Michelet . A mail that explained the words women used when in an argument, and their true meaning – one that men never understand!!!
Here is a short extract from that mail:

Fine
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
Nothing
This is the calm before the storm. This means "something" and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with "nothing" usually end in "fine".
Go Ahead
This is a dare….. not a permission, DON'T EVEN BY MISTAKE TRY TO DO IT!

If we did a random survey among men (especially married men and men with girlfriends), I am sure nearly 100% of them will agree that they have come across at least one of the above three “sticky situations”, where they would be caught between the devil and the deep blue sea.
A Woman is such a miracle of divine contradiction that even in this 21st century, we still see famous authors and poets, extensively writing about ‘woman’. Yet no one can claim to fully fathom her mind and her spirit. Though attempts have been made in the form of movies like “what women want?” etc etc , but when we interact with women in our daily lives, we are still left baffled about what they are all about? As human history progressed from stone age to the current 21st century, man has been progressive, and developed in the fields of science and technology, he has been able to understand the wonders of nature and make them sound simple and easy to understand. But in the case of WOMEN, the men folk in spite of all the available technology and gadgets have just not been able to understand a woman. As if things weren’t complex enough, with the 21st century and the women’s liberation movement in its full force, things have become even more difficult for us mortals.
I feel woman is a controlled form of split personality, wherein at times she is like a flower and looks like one, but at times can sting like a bee. Probably that’s why Oscar Wilde correctly puts it as : “Women are meant to be loved, not understood”. Forget the contradictions that come in your life just appreciate the fact that there are other men in your position going through the same thing everyday!!! And understand the universal truth about women :
“ Women, cant live with them, but at the same time cant live without them”
