Girls
A day we all missed . Thursday the 11th October was the day of the Girls. Which has been celebrated since by the United Nations since 2012.
1. Worldwide, 107 boys are born for every 100 girls.
2. Life expectancy at birth however favours females, it is 67 for males and 71 for females
3, When the word girl entered the language in the 14th. Century it was used to mean a child of either sex. Boy always meant a male child.
4. The word girl occurs only once in the King James Bible , Joel 3:3 refers to a girl sold for wine.
5. The plural girls also occurs only once. Zechariah 8.5 mentioning boys and girls playing in the streets.
6. According to the CIA, Kazakhstan and Nauru are the only countries that have more girl babies than boys.
7. Aristotle believed that unborn male baby’s lie on the right side of the womb, girls on the left.
8. Research suggests that girls have better hearing and more acute taste than boys. They are also quicker to learn to speak.
9. 14. Films with girl in the title have won Oscars twice as many as those with boy.
10. A girl should be two things . Classy and fabulous ( Coco Chanel)
For all those. Who thought the UN just sat on their hands, here is proof that they do some things sometimes. However I don’t understand how they class those who can’t decide whether to claim masculine or feminine gender. Or is that overstepping the boundary’s of propriety.

Re: Girls
John, given time I am sure the UN will rule on this regarding GLBTIQ and will declare that it should be compulsory.
There will be a UN directive explaining how this must be achieved.
Just about every other aspect of global control is legislated by them so why not this?


Happy daze John in Oz.

Willie Nelson – To All The Girls I've Loved Before Lyrics
To all the girls I've loved before
Who travelled in and out my door
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before
To all the girls I once caressed
And may I say I've held the best
For helping me to grow
I owe a lot I know
To all the girls I've loved before
The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away
To all the girls who shared my life
Who now are someone else's wives
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before
To all the girls who cared for me
Who filled my nights with ecstasy
They live within my heart
I'll always be a part
Of all the girls I've loved before
The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away
To all the girls we've loved before
Who travelled in and out our doors
We're glad they came along
We dedicate this song
To all the girls we've loved before
To all the girls we've loved before
Who travelled in and out our doors
We're glad they came along
We dedicate this song
To all the girls we've loved before
