If men only knew
that women have been in training
since Barbie and Ken

Boys play with toys while girls use Barbie and Ken dolls to train for marriage!!
Men don’t have a clue how out gunned and unprepared they really are in relationships!
Perhaps, that’s a good thing? Men aren’t as brave as they appear to be!!!
Haha…cute haiku but of course I totally disagree being a woman who never played with a Barbie nor trained for marriage…not in this day and age. lol

Well, things may have changed since I was a boy! Unfortunately, we receive more “programming” from the media than we realize! Thanks for your great comment!

Only if we listen, I bet we are probably from the same generation. I am just an odd one, and I never listen to the media *_~

Oh Chuck, you can be sure that my Barbie and Ken dolls had equal relationships and shared the household chores and parenting responsibilities. And sometimes Barbie was married to Midge.
When I wasn’t off playing with my Tonka trucks of course. . .

Men know. Society blinds them. Some parents teach them incorrectly. My son and sons-in-law know. My second husband knows.

Clever haiku, Chuck. I never played with Barbie and Ken but I imagine them to be pretty innocent compared to what happens in relationships today.
