Being a Bloke.

[den]

If you look at these 46 chromosomes with a microscope, you'll see that 45 of them are the same in boys and in girls, but that the 46th chromosome is different. It's quite large in girls where it carries about 1,500 genes, but in boys it's tiny, and carries only 78 genes. So guys, next time you go thinking that you are the Lord of Creation, just remember that your pulsating masculinity is made possible by just 78 genes. In fact, you can think of women as the luxury model with all the options, while guys are the cheap economy model without the air-con, power steering and cruise control.

don't forget that one of them is responsible for making men NEVER ask directions, no matter how lost they are, how late they are, or that they don't happen to have a street directory for the city they are in. A bloke _always_ knows where he's going.

and when something goes wrong, (modern) guys will all stand around with the hood/bonnet open, all of them looking at the engine, and none of them willing to admit they don't know a rocker cover from a starter motor, or the transmission fluid dipstick from the regular oil dipstick.

genetics are a funny old business, aren't they ?
