“A man is commanding - a woman is demanding. A man is forceful - a woman is pushy. A man is uncompromising - a woman is a ball-breaker. A man is a perfectionist - a woman's a pain in the ass. He's assertive - she's aggressive. He strategizes - she manipulates. He shows leadership - she's controlling. He's committed - she's obsessed. He's persevering - she's relentless. He sticks to his guns - she's stubborn. If a man wants to get it right, he's looked up to and respected. If a woman wants to get it right, she's difficult and impossible.” IfsMenWantShowsPainDifficultImpossibleHe ManGunBallsSticksCommittedAssObsessedSexismAggressiveStubbornManipulateRelentlessPerfectionistWomen WantAssertiveUncompromisingPushy Author:Barbra Streisand
