TEN  REASON  WHY  MEN  ARE'NT  NECESSARILY HAPPIER  CAMPERS.

1.   We have bruised ribs. Pregnant women need sleep and don't  
appreciate the snoring.
2.   Our faces itch like mad from our "man beards"
3.   We have chafing in places that would better serve us if they  
were neatly tucked away
4.   Warm underwear destroys our fertility
5.   Many of us can no longer reach our own toenails and so our  
pocket knives can't help
6.   Many of us need to carry little blue pills
7.   We think we're the only ones who can pee inside the tent at  
night but we're not
8.   Nobody is impressed by a man hiking topless
9.   Unless we have long flowing hair kept neatly in a braid, it just  
looks greasy and unkempt
10.  We start a lot of forest fires and many of us have an abnormal  
attachment to campfires, probably because we're secretly afraid of  
scary things in the dark
