I secreted my secrets in a sly place,
Covered them with a slicker from the rain,
In hopes that mold and rot will not take hold,
I secreted my secrets in a sly place;
What is hidden in that dreary, dark place,
Is the answer to every maiden's prayer,
I secreted my secrets in a sly place,
To be revealed when men can understand.

No, we won't, I don't think. There is a bit of not understanding which comes from the female also, M, but I admit and agree that basically it is man's inability to understand women that causes so much trouble.
