The battle of the sexes

The very title of this post may cause many to plunge into fits of consternation.  Despite every signs of peace, love or any goodwill between members of the opposite sexes, one still can not but notice the constant tug-of-war between their members. 

   This, in part, is constituted by the constant need to attract the attention of the opposite sex. I was lead into this line of thought by one of my friends' reflective quips. He went "hmmmm....to men, all women are conquests that they succeed or fail in". This, although caused me to spring back in denial, did cause me to ponder. it is but a fact that men put themselves at the mercy of a woman, try various tricks, pretend, deceive just for the pleasure of knowing that he succeeded in his "conquest". I can not but acknowledge the possibility that women, in their own way, are privy to this battle of sexes. It is but a musing of a man, that this may be the obvious reason behind health consciousness, sexy shoes and expensive perfumes. 

  Although this supposed "battle" may be the center of many a person's ridicule, it is true. It's implications may be not readily be acceptable to a majority of us; But, one can definitely not rule out it's existence. Shifting to a more biological perspective, this is nature's way of ensuring healthy offspring. The constant "battle" keeps us on our toes while picking a prospective mate. The better one is at handling the opposte sex, the healthier one's children will be, could be the empirical, rudimentary and theoretical conclusion one may draw from this. considerations of the human sense of logic could very well render this argument moot. Nonetheless, the battle goes on.
