Why Men Cry and Women Lie?

Now, if I didn't have such a title for my post, you wouldn't probably read my post.
So, let me first confess to changing things ever so slightly and not so subtly so as to draw attention.

In order to set things in order, let me first tell you that this stranger next to me in Mc Donalds was actually reading a book titled "Why Men Lie and Women Cry". (and NOT the other way round as the title suggests!)

Now, the following things are important to note:-

1. It was a Mc Donald's outlet, and yours truly was in the "Singles, please sit here" area of Mc Donalds, least bothered to notice people around, happily dipping into his ice cream.
2. FTV was playing on the telly, and earlier, while eating the burger in the common area, I had happened to notice that the men were ogling at either the women on the telly, or other women moving around, irrespective of whether they were themselves in the company of fashionable women ;-)
3. This dude, is obviously waiting for his girl, and with no other place vacant, decides to sit next to me and wait; reading as he waits for his girl...er...woman :)
4. The guy is lost, and has been reading the book before walking into Mc Donalds, and is visibly excited reading the book, nodding in agreement and smiling to himself.
5. I wait to see the cover, and discover that the author is Allan Pease, the author of Body Language.
6. I no longer repent not having read "Body Language" although in a teenage whim, I had picked a pirated copy of the same ;-)



But...hang on a second.

7. The title (of the book, as well as the twisted anti-title - the title of this post) , apart from being hilarious, is also quite ridiculous ; for very few men or women do only one of the two!
8. It is sometimes an interesting exercise to walk into a restaurant or cafeteria alone. So what if you don't have company! Observing people can be an interesting and entertaining pastime :)
Mr. Delhi, I know I have a real long way before I catch up with you, but yes, I can now imagine how you must have entertained yourself in different parts of the world :)
