Now maybe youâve received the âKing Arthurâs Dilemma: A Wise Lesson for All Men to Learnâ thatâs currently circulating the Internet.
Hereâs how it goes: As a test, young Arthur was asked to answer the question, âWhat do women really want?â He finally went to âa repugnant old witchâ to get the answer. She said sheâd tell him if heâd marry her. He agreed and she gave the answer: âTo be in charge of their own life.â
Then the wedding ⦠and Arthur was v. reluctant. But, this being a fairytale, there was more testing of our hero ahead. She appeared to him as beautiful woman saying that since heâd been so kind to her, sheâd be a witch half the time, and a beautiful maiden half the time. But he would have to choose when!
He pondered ⦠a beautiful woman to show off to his friends, but at night, in the privacy of his home, an old witch? Or by day a hideous hag, but by night a beautiful woman with whom to enjoy many intimate moments?
WHAT WOULD YOU DO? Which would you choose?
The fable continues: âNoble Arthur replied he would let her choose for herself. Upon hearing this, she announced she would be beautiful all the time, because he had respected her enough to let her be in charge of her own life.â

He goes on to say âWithout appreciation, a person begins to feel inadequate and incapable of giving support.â Funny he switches to âpersonâ here. An unappreciated man, he says, becomes âpassive, lazy, weak, dependent, insecure and apt to procrastinate.â
But then so do I. Actually, I get ugly.
