Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by  the monarch of a
neighboring  kingdom. The monarch could have killed him but was  moved by Arthur's
youth and ideals. So, the monarch offered him his freedom,  as long as he
could answer a very difficult question. Arthur would have a year  to figure out
the answer and, if after a year, he still had no answer, he  would be put
to death.

The question?...What do women really want? Such  a question would perplex
even the most knowledgeable man, and to young Arthur,  it seemed an
impossible query. But, since it was better than death, he  accepted the monarch's
proposition to have an answer by year's end.

He  returned to his kingdom and began to poll everyone: the princess, the
priests,  the wise men and even the court jester. He spoke with everyone, but
no one  could give him a satisfactory answer.

Many people advised him to  consult the old witch, for only she would have
the answer.

But the  price would be high; as the witch was famous throughout the
kingdom for the  exorbitant prices she charged.

The last day of the year arrived and  Arthur had no choice but to talk to
the witch She agreed to answer the  question, but he would have to agree to
her price first.

The old witch  wanted to marry Sir Lancelot, the most noble of the Knights
of the Round Table  and Arthur's closest friend!

Young Arthur was horrified. She was  hunchbacked and hideous, had only one
tooth, smelled like sewage, made obscene  noises, etc He had never
encountered such a repugnant creature in all his  life.

He refused to force his friend to marry her and endure such a  terrible
burden; but Lancelot, learning of the proposal, spoke with  Arthur.

He said nothing was too big of a sacrifice compared to Arthur's  life and
the preservation of the Round Table.

Hence, a wedding was  proclaimed and the witch answered Arthur's question
thus:

What a woman  really wants, she answered....is to be in charge of her own  
life.

Everyone in the kingdom instantly knew that the witch had uttered  a great
truth and that Arthur's life would be spared.

And so it was,  the neighboring monarch granted Arthur his freedom and
Lancelot and the witch  had a wonderful wedding.

The honeymoon hour approached and Lancelot,  steeling himself for a
horrific experience, entered the bedroom. But, what a  sight awaited him. The most
beautiful woman he had ever seen lay before him on  the bed. The astounded
Lancelot asked what had happened.

The beauty  replied that since he had been so kind to her when she appeared
as a witch,  she would henceforth, be her horrible deformed self only half
the time and the  beautiful maiden the other half.

Which would he prefer? Beautiful  during the day.....or night?

Lancelot pondered the predicament. During  the day, a beautiful woman to
show off to his friends, but at night, in the  privacy of his castle, an old
witch? Or, would he prefer having a hideous  witch during the day, but by
night, a beautiful woman for him to enjoy  wondrous intimate moments?

What would YOU do?

What Lancelot  chose is below. BUT....make YOUR choice before you scroll
down below.  OKAY?

Noble Lancelot said that he would allow  HER to make the choice herself.

Upon hearing this, she announced that  she would be beautiful all the time
because he had respected her enough to let  her be in charge of her own life.

Now.....what is the moral to this  story?  

The moral  is....
If you don't let a woman have her own  way...
Things are going to get ugly
