    Which would you rather have

    I really don't know what to say about this little gem of wisdom I came across today....

    NEW DELHI (Reuters) - A textbook used at schools in the Indian state of Rajasthan compares housewives to donkeys, and suggests the animals make better companions as they complain less and are more loyal to their "masters," The Times of India reported Tuesday.


    "A donkey is like a housewife ... In fact, the donkey is a shade better, for while the housewife may sometimes complain and walk off to her parents' home, you'll never catch the donkey being disloyal to his master," the newspaper reported, quoting a Hindi-language primer meant for 14-year-olds.

    I don't know if I should answer that or not. I might say something to offend someone. So for now I will just keep quiet and let you men discuss this one. I might comment later on though.

      I have never had to clean up after my wife. The donkey?
      A swift kick to the head from either one is gonna hurt.
      Wife doesn't snore. Does the donkey?
      Donkey can't cook. Wife can, rather well in fact.
      Donket eats hay and grains. Wiife needs dinner out every now and then.
      Wife looks good in a dress. Donkey? Let's not go there, ok?

          Important question--if you are looking at another donkey and say "Nice ass!" is your donkey gonna go ballistic and smack you upside the head??

            If you are looking at donkeys and thinking "nice ass", you got a strange fetish or problem.

                Donkeys dont complain?? I never met one who didn't have an argumenative and/or obstinate streak. I wonder if the "study" was dealing with drugged donkeys (or maybe with drugged women?).
                ...eight, nine, TEN! Yep! Still got all my fingers!

                  Ok, I have a wife, and my parent's have a donkey. I can tell you from experience that donkeys do in fact complain. And very loudly too boot. The wife also complains, and about equally as loud, but far less often. The donkey complains daily, the wife complains every other day. (or so)
