The Mind of a Woman
By Michael Seabaugh
“Why is thinking something women never do? And why is logic
never even tried? Straightening up their hair is all they ever do.
Why don’t they straighten up the mess that’s inside?” These much
beloved lyrics are from Alan Jay Lerner’s My Fair Lady, which poses
the immortal question: “Why can’t a woman be more like a man?” Two
weeks ago I penned a column on the male mind, wondering if it ever
really changes from its halcyon days of adolescence.
Always striving to be fair, I have decided to tackle a parallel
exploration of the female mind. Although I am a professional in the
venue of the mind, I know from prior experience that whenever I
venture into the mysterious realm of the female psyche, I am
treading on very thin ice.
