"It is simply being able to do two things at once" said Professor F.M.Williams.
"For years I have been examining the phenomenon that is multi-tasking and the more I researched it, the closer I became to discovering it was just doing two things at the same time".
This discovery has sent shock-waves to females all over the world, with many of them having to stop talking in order to listen to the news on breakfast television this morning.
Professor Williams added "examples of multi-tasking I found whilst doing my research included; ironing whilst slagging off the neighbours new conservatory, being able to drink coffee whilst gossiping about their close 'friends' and having sex whilst watching Coronation Street. In extreme cases women were found to have been able to maintain an argument with their partner without actually talking to them, solely by the use of stamping their feet whilst walking upstairs, banging things down on the coffee table and slamming doors after they leave a room, all this whilst keeping a reasonably calm conversation with their best friend on the telephone".
Professor Williams is also keen to point out that women are not the only ones who are able to do this "the reality is that men have been doing it for years. For example; men are able to listen to their wives banging on about her boss and that woman from the canteen whilst paying full attention to the football and even having sex with their partners whilst fantasizing about someone else and still remembering to call out the correct name".
It is not all bad news for women though as one woman who did not want to be named was quick to point out; "I feel so relieved our secret is out, trying to keep up the pretence that we are somehow better at this has been such a burden. You try watching the football with your husband and attempting to sound interested as he explains the off-side rule to you whilst desperately try to remember what colour England are playing in, at the same time as holding in your stomach and reminding yourself not to eat, it's been a bloody nightmare! I know friends who have conceived children without realising it until it was too late, simply because they tried to do two things at once".

So, women boast about being able to do 2 things at once ? I like to keep quiet about it, but (as a man) I've always been able to do 4 things at once - as long as 3 of these are sex, beer and football - and preferably the 4th is food.
That comment will keep the little dears happy ;-))
