Hubby Store-for women who shop for hubbies

(2007-10-03 16:23:55) 下一个
A store that sells new husbands has just opened in New York City, where a 
woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is 
a description of how the store operates: 
You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the 
value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. 
The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may 
choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down 
except to exit the building! 
So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the firstfloor 
the sign on the door reads: 
Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs. 
The second floor sign reads: 
Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids. 
 The third floor sign reads: 
Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking. 
"Wow," she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going. 
She goes to the fourth floor and sign reads: 
Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and 
Help With Housework. 
"Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!" Still, she goes to 
the fifth floor and sign reads: 
Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with 
Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak. 
 She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor and the Sign 
reads: 
Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. 
There are no men on this floor. 
This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. 
Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store. 
To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opens a New Wives store just 
across the street. 
The first floor has wives that love sex. 
 The second floor has wives that love sex and have money. 
The third through sixth floors have never been visited

womaninhome 回复 悄悄话 回复李老师的评论:
Yes. You got it. I believe the writer of this story is a man. because he is complaining women ask for too much from a man, and men are only asking one thing from women : sex.
hehehe.
谭贝贝 回复 悄悄话 应该有一层楼卖,these men have money and love wife.
李老师 回复 悄悄话 看过中文版的,再来学习英文版。
这个故事是不是说,人的贪念太过,最后会一无所有。
另一层意思是不是,女人对男人的要求要比男人对女人的更多,女人似乎更不满足。是吗?
