Communication between the sexes can be downright funny sometimes. Offered are the following examples.
I was told the tale of a husband who was sent to the grocery store to get a jar of whole cloves which his wife intended to use on a baked ham. By the time he arrived at the grocery store, he had forgotten the name of what he was to purchase. A clerk attempted to assist him. He asked the clerk to help him find some "ham nails".
I once listened to a male person describe a bed skirt. The description was: the hangy-down, floppy thing that goes around a bed.
The best one I ever heard: The setting was the grocery store check out line. The clerk was female and the purchaser was female. The "bag person" was a 16 year old male. The purchaser suddenly realized she had forgotten to pick up a box of tampax and she said this outloud. The 16 year old cheerfully volunteered to go get them for her and quickly dashed off to retrieve the product.
The women exchanged rather surprised glances with each other. Quite unusual behavior for a male person, especially of that age. The bag boy quickly returned and said to the purchaser, "I forgot to ask you what kind you wanted. The kind you push in with your thumb or the kind you use a hammer on??" The bag-boy thought the purchaser said she had forgotten to pick up some THUMBTACKS.
