Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the monarch of a neighboring kingdom. The monarch could have killed him but was moved by Arthur 's youth and ideals. So, the monarch offered him his freedom, as long as he could answer a very difficult question. Arthur would have a year to figure out the answer and, if after a year, he still had no answer, he would be put to death.

The question?...What do women really want? Such a question would perplex even the most knowledgeable man, and to young Arthur , it seemed an impossible query. But, since it was better than death, he accepted the monarch's proposition to have an answer by year's end.

He returned to his kingdom and began to poll everyone: the princess, the priests, the wise men and even the court jester. He spoke with everyone, but no one could give him a satisfactory answer.

Many people advised him to consult the old witch, for only she would have the answer.

But the price would be high; as the witch was famous throughout the kingdom for the exorbitant prices she charged.

The last day of the year arrived and Arthur had no choice but to talk to the witch. She agreed to answer the question, but he would have to agree to her price first.

The old witch wanted to marry Sir Lancelot, the most noble of the Knights of the Round Table and Arthur 's closest friend!

Young Arthur was horrified. She was hunchbacked and hideous, had only one tooth, smelled like sewage, made obscene noises, etc. He had never encountered such a repugnant creature in all his life.

He refused to force his friend to marry her and endure such a terrible burden; but Lancelot, learning of the proposal, spoke with Arthur

He said nothing was too big of a sacrifice compared to Arthur 's life and the preservation of the Round Table.

Hence, a wedding was proclaimed and the witch answered Arthur 's question thus:

What a woman really wants, she answered....is to be in charge of her own life.

Everyone in the kingdom instantly knew that the witch had uttered a great truth and that Arthur 's life would be spared.

And so it was, the neighboring monarch granted Arthur his freedom and Lancelot and the witch had a wonderful wedding.

The honeymoon hour approached and Lancelot, steeling himself for a horrific experience, entered the bedroom. But, what a sight awaited him. The most beautiful woman he had ever seen lay before him on the bed. The astounded Lancelot asked what had happened

The beauty replied that since he had been so kind to her when she appeared as a witch, she would henceforth, be her horrible deformed self only half the time and the beautiful maiden the other half.

Which would he prefer? Beautiful during the day....or night?

Lancelot pondered the predicament. During the day, a beautiful woman to show off to his friends, but at night, in the privacy of his castle, an old witch? Or, would he prefer having a hideous witch during the day, but by night, a beautiful woman for him to enjoy wondrous intimate moments?

What would YOU do?

What Lancelot chose is below

BUT....make YOUR choice before you scroll down below.



OKAY?





Noble Lancelot said that he would allow HER to make the choice herself.

Upon hearing this, she announced that she would be beautiful all the time because he had respected her enough to let her be in charge of her own life.

Now....what is the moral to this story?

If you don't let a woman have her way....

In theory, sounds like a valid idea. In reality, the chances of it working out that way are probably slim to none. How about the husband gets what he wants first and that way she gets what she wants?

That will happen right after monkees fly out of my butt.

GHaynes1: I am sorry, but i must disagree with you. From my experience in 86 years of my lifespan so far, you have it backwards. See my response to OldJim on this subject/post. But, to be clear, sometimes, nothing either way works, and then one is likley to have to split. Just Sayin...RJS

I followed your "theory" twice. 16 yrs the first time, 18 years the second time, both ended in divorce. I guess my 2 ex-wives were the exception to your rule. But wait, if you are right, I would have received what I wanted and not got crapped on. I think the sometimes nothing either way works, happens more often than you think. Btw, neither one of my ex-wives would hardly qualify as a prostitute.

GHaynes1:; please don't misunderstand me. I am not, and did not mean the female was just after money, in the sense of a prostiture. There were many other ways of allowing her to be first. just Sayin...RJS
