Because they lie more frequently.

You know that I have tried to lick my elbow so much I sprained my tongue [Frown] . I also held my nose and covered my mouth to see about breathing through my butt [Smile] . I passed out four times before I gave up. [Confused]

It is another form of breathing for them, how else can they talk so damn much.

Read these to my students and they tried to touch their tongues to their elbows. Guess what? One could do it.

Women typically don't fart or burp. That's why they bitch so much. Otherwise they would explode.

It's true. I promise. [Razz]

Know why women don't fart? They don't keep thier mouth shut long enough to build up back pressure.
Too bad God didn't put a tail on them, so we would know when they were happy.

As I read these to my wife, she said and I quote, Oh! I'm sure you could lick your elbow." I thought it funny. I tried. She was right. Now I know why I've been happily married for 13 years.
