Why Do Women Sleep...

I kid you not, this past weekend (Friday evening to Sunday night) my wife was asleep for almost 36 hours. Not that there's anything wrong with sleeping in, late and long on the weekend. I understand having a long night, a rough night, even a great night or being sick or it being that time of the month. But there is no rhyme or reason as to why my wife sleeps as long as she does and despite what she believes, she does this every weekend or any day she doesn't have to work.

I hate to say it, but my wife is not the first woman (from the most professional to straight...ahem...'hood chicks) I've known who's made sleeping into a professional sport, or touted it as something nearly as pleasurable as sex or food.

This Wednesday's Question of the Week:

• Why do women, seemingly on any given day that they don't have to work, sleep the whole day away?

• Is this something just black women do, or do all women?

And yes, I'm generalizing. Be honest. Be frank.
