I find it rather unfair that we girls have a bad reputation for being tardy. If anything, we are top-notch multitaskers. On occasions when we reach late somewhere, we ought to be excused. Ask any man to do his morning essentials, cook meals for the family, pick out a smart outfit keeping the day’s schedule in mind and ensure that his shoes, makeup and hair is on point.
