"I'm a Juggler I'm a woman"

I find myself juggling a lot of discussions, darlin, and a whole lot of responses. Whew, hard to keep up, but I'm giving it the old college try. Geez, we all have so many things in life to juggle, it's hard to know where to begin, and if I did, I'd probably sound like I was complaining, and I don't have much room to complain, so I don't think I'll list my particular balls in the air. But, rintintin brought up the innuendo, and you know that's where my mind tends to run, so let me just say something about juggling balls, and not dropping them? Hmmm, I'm feeling their weight in my hands now. Just perfect. Ok, I'm done.

Of course women are better than men at absolutely everything! :P. I know my partner manages to "juggle" a 30-hour a week job and a social life! Whereas, I have no time for a social life as I am currently juggling working and studying from home and looking after my 8-year old and 2-year old sons. Do you think a man could do that? I know my partner couldn't.

Absolutely pikefish :))) I do not mean this as a sexist remark, but hell yes woman are better at juggling and multitasking. We were born with it. It is inherit in our natures. Our Brains are hard wired to be able to juggle everything about raising a family, and now most woman have to work, not to mention baby boomers are also taking care of ailing and aging parents. I would challenge any man to do what some of us women have to do on a daily basis for one week, then say this is not true. But I sure do not think that makes men clowns either.

I juggle our household, my 5 year old son and now our finances (just handed to me a few days ago because it's all up the shoot LOL). I just think women are more organized and able to handle 4-5 tasks especially when it comes to taking care of the home. In saying that, I found that my husband is very organized when it comes to his job but when you ask him to help around the house, go and buy groceries while taking care of our son ... umm forget that, it's too dayum hard for him.

Hi there! I ended up laughing with your response to pumpkinjam.lol! And yes, pumpkinjam's right. At least you managed to maintain your baby clean by Day 3. My husband may relate with you somehow. He's never good with cleaning the house though because the more he tries, the more mess he makes. :) I'm afraid I have to agree with most of who have answered. MOST women are better jugglers and better multi-taskers especially when it comes to taking care of children, managing the household and other family matters. I guess it has something to do with the way they were brought up. As for me, I take care of my husband and son(24/7),manage the household chores(24/7), at the same time, I'm the one who handles the family budget. And I'm the one guides my son in his studies. In short, I do almost everything. Some husbands end up frustrated and confused when faced with all the different tasks. It's unfamiliar territory for them,that's why they end up doing it in a not so good way. I know this for sure because my husbannd is one of them. He often tells me to take things one at a time. Because when I plan something, I'm planning for other things at the same time. Sometimes he complains that I try too hard. And I tell him that there's so many things that I need to do, and so little time. But when I tell him that he can help me lessen my load of responsibilities, he slowly backs out!lol!

I am not sure women are better than men, I think it is how organized you are to be honest. I juggle everything in my life, with the jobs I have I have to. Ainge

I juggle my finances. I don't know that women are better than men in this field, but I have heard many men admit that women are better at multi-tasking.
