Why Men Don't Dance and Women Don't Cook

Sounds a bit funny I know, but it's pretty much true. To understand this, we have to go way back into our past and examine life as it was then. I mean way back. Men were responsible for going out and slaying the beast and bringing back home. He whack off a few chunks and mamma would shove a stick through it and plop it over an open fire. As things progressed and more humans arrived on the scene, territorial disputes arise and so the men not only to go out and kick dinosaur butt, but they turned on each other and whacked their neighbors, if they got to close to their hunting grounds.

Now we jump ahead a bit, and see where men decided somewhere along the line to start dancing to please their war gods before going to battle. Then once home from a good days successful skirmish, they would dance around the fire as a celebration to give thanks for their gods empowering them during battle. Mamma still cooked up a pretty mean Brontosaurus steak. This continued in many cultures all the way up to the industrial revolution, and in some countries even later than that right to this day.

But here in America, things started to change as women gained the right to vote, established more independence and finally burned their bras in the 60's. Life changed so dramatically, that no longer was it the usual custom for women to stay home and tend to the family and the man went off to work. Life was speeding up and the pressures to keep up with the Jones' set in, which in turn started to tear at the fabric which held families together.

More and more women started working out of the home. A boost to that were the world war ll years, as women filled jobs that previously were held by men who had left for the war. There was no turning back from there. And so it has continued this way ever since. The upshot to this, is family life has never been the same. And a casualty of this new lifestyle, has been the good health of most Americans. Especially our children. The era of fast food was ushered in and has all but replaced family meals in the home. Everybody is on the go at breakneck speeds.

No one seems to have the same schedule. Mom and Dad are working odd hours. Billy and Susie are each going their own way. Either work after school or extra curricular activities to build up that college application. Everybody has to stop and eat. So what to do. Slip into McDonalds, Burger King or Wendy's. Or some other bastion of fat and sugar.

Americans are getting fatter and fatter as the years go by. More diets pop up and exercise routines are touted on TV. But nothing seems to change. It must, or our future as a country is going to be bloated and ugly. There is a new site that deals with health issues and will be featuring ways to establish a better healthy lifestyle. Without all the craziness. Recipes, informative articles, and even some health products. http://www.theslimtruth.com will be issuing a multi page report soon about a 55 year old man that discovered a heathy diet, that literally saved his life. The story is very inspiring. In fact not only did his new diet save his life, but he was able to get off insulin. I promised not to divulge too much, until the report was ready and available.

There's just no questioning the fact that things must change and change soon. Or our future will be one where a senior citizen will be in their 40's. Live or die....it's your choice. I for one am slowing down and living life, and not just watching it go by.

Oh by the way, Men don't dance cause were too fat and lazy, and women don't cook cause they're slaving away at some dead end job making less than a man would be making.
