Coo-coo clock.

I was browsing through some old Cosmo magazines yesterday and found this article:

Cosmo asks men: What is it about women that really scares you.

• "The thing with women is that you never know you're going to get into trouble until it's too late. 'Sure, that's fine' rarely means 'Sure, that's fine'. The consequences can be terrifying" - Jean Luc, 24, art student

• "That they are able to stick a pencil in their eye and colour the inside of their eyelids. And that they really don't see a problem with it." - Andrew, 33, director.

• "Heaps of things: their orgasm face; their ability to remember the fact that you didn't remember something over a year ago; their ability to differentiate between two almost identical handbangs and the fact that most women don't seem to have any qualms about giving a swift knee to your nether regions when play-wrestling in bed." - James, 23, graphic designer.

• "The damage they could do with a well-placed stiletto." - Ross, 26, choreographer.

• "How they can spend money. It's different to men - we tend to spend larger amounts in one lump sum, like on a car. But women can make much smaller (but more numerous) transactions that build up to larger amounts more quickly." - Bill, 29, account manager.

• "The way they look first things in the morning." - Rob, 32, production manager.

• "Their ability to blame all behavious (no matter how erratic) on hormones and other things we men don't entirely understand. Women can somehow manage to avoid responsibilty for their actions by simply saying 'Sorry, I was just emotional.' By this stage, we're just far too confused and scared to put up a fight." -Allstair, 25, brand manager.

• "If it's true: that girls don't poo...and they never fart." - Don, 24, accountant.

• "That with all the reproductive technology, women won't need us around for much longer." - Olivier, 23, software engineer.

• "Their ability to be fascinated by completely inane things, like shoes, skincare and celebrities." - Calvin, 28, musician.

• "Their biological clock."- Richard, 27, art director.

• "Really big boobs scare me!" - Kai, 33, graphic designer.

• "They can all dance! That's always a scary thing."- Michael, 30, radio producer.

• "When they take their insecurities way too seriously." - Rob, 22, student.

• "Their mood swings terrify me to no end." - Dennis, 27, web designer.

Well now...and we thought men don't understand us women. Lol.
