It all boils down to one thing.
Do you want to be right, or do you want to be happy?

As women are in general wiser than men(oh , there are, of course exceptopns, sadly), all we have to do is not to be bothered by men's (yes Nic, ALL men's) idiocies.
Let them be, have an internal giggle about it, and be happy.

What comes around, goes around....
