The Truth About Equal Rights
Cast:
Man - Woman's husband and equal opportunistWoman - Man's wife and extremist feminist
Man: Could you help me by mopping the floors? I'll begin dusting the furniture.
Woman: Help you mop the floors?! Why should I mop the floors? Is it because I'm a woman? Am I expected because of gender alone to enjoy cleaning?
Man: (Dusting) No, I just want...
Woman: I don't care what you want! I have wants and needs too! I have rights!
Man: Well, so do I but I have to...
Woman: Sure, you have the right to watch football and go out drinking with your buddies while I'm stuck at home mopping because I'm a woman.
Man: Actually I don't drink, we both agreed to that.
Woman: It's irrelevant. You always demand that I do the cooking and cleaning. Well, men don't deserve the treatment that you get from us women.
Man: I agree with the "deserve the treatment" but not the way you ment it when you said it.
Woman: What? You think you deserve more?
Man: Yes and no.
Woman: Well, what more do you want? We cook for you and clean for you and do your clothes for you. What? Want us to put your slippers on for you?
Man: (stops dusting and folds arms) If that where the case, then we wouldn't be having this argument.
Woman: What?! If I put your slippers?
Man: No if you cleaned. Now could you please get the mop?
Woman: I've never seen such insensitivity
Man: yah, ya, men are evil.
Woman: Men deserve the rights of pig dogs.
Man: And women deserve the same rights as men?
Woman: Yes!
Man: (Begins dusting again) Then let us all be pig dogs together and get the house cleaned up. Then it will be clean for your ladies club meeting. Which I might remind you, caused my civil libraties lobby meeting to be canceled and relocated.
Woman: Ugh! (Storms out for a mop)
Nothing like a mop to bring out the best in someone.
