There were 11 people hanging onto a rope that came down from a helicopter．Ten were men and one woman．The rope was starting to fray so they all agreed that one person should let go because if they didn’t，the rope would break and everyone would die．
No one could decide who should go，so finally the woman gave a really touching speech，saying how she would give up her life to save theirs，because women were used to giving up things for their husbands and children，giving into men，and that after all，men were the superior sex and must be saved．When she finished speaking，all the men clapped．
Never underestimate the evil of a woman．

吊在一根绳上
有十一个人吊在一根由直升飞机上甩下的绳子上。其中有十位男性和一位女性。绳子开始磨损了，因此他们一致建议应该让一个人离开，因为如果不这样做的话，绳子就会断裂，所有人都会丧命。
大家都无法决定究竟应当让谁离开。最后，那位女士说了一番感人肺腑的话。她说她宁愿放弃自己的生命，也要让其他人脱离危险，原因是女人们已经习惯于为自己的老公和孩子做出牺牲，为男人们做出牺牲，最重要的是，男性是优越的性别，必须得到援救。当她讲完的时候，所有的男人都为之鼓掌。
千万不要低估女人的奸诈。
