Like the logic of this, the play on words, the two different follows

huh? the last line doesn't make sense to me. You're also taking a risk when you say "All women" is that ever true?

I prefer the first one even though it was not strictly a haiku. (3rd line what follows is neither)

As for 'all women', I did think that was a bit generalist. But the power of this poem is its logic how the 3rd line concludes the premises of 1 and 2.

Sorry I can't help

the 6-7-6 one was better.

Now the first line sounds like all women rather than all they want.

And the third destroys the flow a bit.

Sorry I couldn't help, maybe if you put the first version on and asked for help someone might have an idea

I am against Gaysie Marriage too. What will they want next, free penises?

I know the feeling. I'm a male prostitute.
