The best benefit of being a man, INMHO, is that it also means not being a woman.

3 - You can play stupid when one of the women is trying to reel you into the drama zone, and be really, really convincing.

4 - You'll always be somewhat of a novelty. You'll be needed for things based on nothing other than your gender.

The women I work with learned quick not to spread gossip in my presence. I started telling them what the other nurses say about when they aren't around.

"Christy...Diane said you always wear scrubs two sizes too small."

Diane...Christy said you needed to wax your upper lip."

5- When the Ladies discuss their Children, hysterectomies, or tubal ligations around me, I get to talk bout my decision to remain childless and my vasectomy!
