There's a place in Cabramatta called 'Bazza's Chocolate Factoy'.

There's also one in Bankstown called 'Chocolates Uleh'.

Behind every great man there's a great woman

Meaning

Literal meaning.

Origin

This has been adopted as a feminist slogan. The origins are uncertain, but it's certainly much older than the Women's Movement of the 1960s/70s, which spawned other such slogans. For example, ' a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle '.

The first printed citation I can find is from the Texas newspaper 'The Port Arthur News', from Feb. 1946. This was headed - "Meryll Frost - 'Most courageous athlete of 1945'":

"As he received his trophy, the plucky quarterback unfolded the story of how he 'came back'. He said 'They say behind every great man there's a woman. While I'm not a great man, there's a great woman behind me.'"

The use of the phrase in that quotation suggests it was well-known at the time, and may be much older than 1945.

The use of the phrase received a boost in 1985 with the release of The Eurythmics' song - Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves:

Now, there was a time,

when they used to say,

that behind ev'ry great man,

there had to be a great woman.

But oh, in these times of change,

you know that it's no longer true.

So we're comin' out of the kitchen,

'cause there's something we forgot to say to you.

We say, Sisters are doin' it for themselves,

I shall Believe this lol ...

Oh ladies, i didn't mean girls doesn't have nice car :)

I agree without women, there would be no men, and also the visa versa....but also if the man has no car to drive the wife to the hosipital to give birth....that would not be any good either, would it? hehe :)

hmmmm...now this make me think....should a man have a girlfriend first? or a car first?

Just as an interesting thought....does girls mind what boys drive when they first met...any affect on the first impression? :) 2nd question: Is Corolla good enough? otherwise I would have stay single forever...:(

it dooesnt matter what car a man drives as long as u can take care of it is what matters............women love domesticated men!

ie: men that know how to cook and clean and take care of things other then themselves!!

i hope i gave u some insight into what women look for!! :D

Thanks Mish :) I do my laundry every week, I washes dishes every night, I wash the car at least once a fornight, but I can't cook........

"women love domesticated men!"??????? - I thought women loves bad boys, wild man? Good guy go last, isn't there this saying?

Funny how it works that way sometimes.

EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT IRREGARDLESS OF SEX

lol

so true!! rob!!

but women like the bad boy look.............its kinda sexy.............but when it comes down to who a woman will bare children for the domesticated one would win as no one would want their kids father to be in and out of jail................not exactly a good daddy figure to be in a kids life.

lets talk more about chocolate............much happier a topic.................i wanna go swimming in the cadbury factory.
