Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by
the monarch of a neighboring kingdom. The monarch
could have killed him but was moved by Arthur's
youth and ideals. So, the monarch offered him his
freedom, as long as he could answer a very difficult
question. Arthur would have a year to figure out the
answer and, if after a year, he still had no answer,
he would be put to death.
The question?....What do women really want? Such a
question would perplex even the most knowledgeable
man, and to young Arthur, it seemed an impossible
query. But, since it was better than death, he
accepted the monarch's proposition to have an answer
by year's end.
He returned to his kingdom and began to poll
everyone: the princess, the priests, the wise men
and even the court jester. He spoke with everyone,
but no one could give him a satisfactory answer.
Many people advised him to consult the old witch,
for only she would have the answer.
But the price would be high; as the witch was famous
throughout the kingdom for the exorbitant prices she
charged.
The last day of the year arrived and Arthur had no
choice but to talk to the witch. She agreed to
answer the question, but he would have to agree to
her price first.
The old witch wanted to marry Sir Lancelot, the most
noble of the Knights of the Round Table and Arthur's
closest friend!
Young Arthur was horrified. She was hunchbacked and
hideous, had only one tooth, smelled like sewage,
made obscene noises, etc. He had never encountered
such a repugnant creature in all his life.
He refused to force his friend to marry her and
endure such a terrible burden; but Lancelot,
learning of the proposal, spoke with Arthur.
He said nothing was too big of a sacrifice compared
to Arthur's life and the preservation of the Round
Table.
Hence, a wedding was proclaimed and the witch
answered Arthur's question thus:
What a woman really wants, she answered....is to be
in charge of her own life.
Everyone in the kingdom instantly knew that the
witch had uttered a great truth and that Arthur's
life would be spared.
And so it was, the neighboring monarch granted
Arthur his freedom and Lancelot and the witch had a
wonderful wedding.
The honeymoon hour approached and Lancelot, steeling
himself for a horrific experience, entered the
bedroom. But, what a sight awaited him. The most
beautiful woman he had ever seen lay before him on
the bed. The astounded Lancelot asked what had
happened
The beauty replied that since he had been so kind to
her when she appeared as a witch, she would
henceforth, be her horrible deformed self only half
the time and the beautiful maiden the other half.
Which would he prefer? Beautiful during the
day....or night?
Lancelot pondered the predicament. During the day, a
beautiful woman to show off to his friends, but at
night, in the privacy of his castle, an old witch?
Or, would he prefer having a hideous witch during
the day, but by night, a beautiful woman for him to
enjoy wondrous intimate moments?
What would YOU do?
Spend some time before making your answers, guys.
Look at the Subject line...
What did Lancelot do?
Abangan... (to be continued...)

Mzmm, korek ka dyan (hitting the nail on the head)!  Noble Lancelot said that he would allow HER to make the choice herself. Upon hearing this, she announced that she would be beautiful all the time because he had respected her enough to let her be in charge of her own life. Now....what is the moral to this story? Abangan... |

IMHO, avoid, as much as possible, any question put to you by the female sex, that forces you to make a choice/opinion, about their body/beauty. You'll live a lot longer. |

hmm...i think the real lesson of the story is...if the woman is ugly, let her be in charge of her own life...yup, leave her alone hahaha! (j/k) levity aside, great men tried in vain to find "the answer" to this question...they all died broken and defeated. ;D my personal opinion is...there is no single answer to this question...ang sagot ay kasing dami ng babae sa mundo. |

Sir Gadets...why wait till a child turns 4yrs/old??? why not enjoy each and everyday that you could be together? The minute a baby is born, we, the fathers, are so excited. We have this camera-diary-scrapbook project, we have this washing-feeding-clothing-change of diapers project. we have this shopping-house remodeling project. So one doesn't actually wait for a child to turn 4. It happens INSTANTLY. When a child turns 4, he goes to nursery school. Then, the morphosis occurs, the challenge begins. Children start to philosophize everything, they ask "WHY" more than 12 times in 5 minutes. My kid wants to eat grapes/mangoes/bananas after dinner, and I have to explain myself that the market is closed and he has to wait another day. "Why we don't have fruits, daddy? I wanna eat". To which my response is: "although your daddy is superman, your daddy is not a supermarket. A supermarket is different from a superman. A supermarket is a place with all the food are for sale. A superman is a man who can fly. So let's fly to the bathroom and brush our teeth. Because no girl wants to be saved by a superman with no teeth. " I had my girl once wake up in the middle of the night (12midnight) to tell me: "daddy, i have a homework. Have to draw a flower". I asks my wife if that's really necessary, and wifey tells me that if I don't do the homework, my girl is gonna stay up all night worrying about it. So I tell them I got the homework covered, and everybody sleeps happily ever after, except me. I took the time to look for the crayons, the paper. Made myself me a steaming hot Korean noodle in 5 minutes. Searched for an encyclopedia with a nice pic of a sunflower. The sketching and coloring part is the easiest part actually (I used to work as an artist). Guess what? I was bone-tired at 9pm. Finally got to go to bed at 1 a.m. Inadvertently waking up the wife, to which she asked: "Honey, you're still up? Want to make another baby?" Oh my gulay! (Better eat me spinach cause Popeye's the sailor man... Toot toot!) ;D ;D ;D |
