Torture
Working in an office full of women is any man’s hell
the sense of humours are too different
you have to throw endless caution to the wind
and the worse thing is that you can’t stare
scrub that
the worst thing is that my desk faces the filing cabinet
all day I’m subjected to temptation
there’s bending over
relentless wiggling
this could truly be any man’s heaven
but there’s constantly female eyes watching me from behind
“That Benny’s a real pervert” they’d whisper
“He was looking down the back of your low slung trousers” they’d tell
I can afford the quickest of glimpses
from the very corner of my straining eye
but the frustration kills me
it’s worse than nothing at all
I need to move desks.

Well it could be "Torture" for them if you're the only male in the office? Maybe THEY need to move desks. Thanks for giving me a laugh!

I work with quite a lot of women. Thank God this is not my experience. Wow I do pity you.
