The lonely man sat by himself in his living room. He sat watching the ski race.
One racer fell. The fall was not bad. The girl skiing was not hurt, only, her race was forfeit. But the next skier was already on the course and having a good run. But because of the fall, the second girl got yellow-flagged and had to stop her run.
By the time the second skier was taken back up the hill, she was tired from her first run, and her concentration was disrupted. The course had also deteriorated since her first run, so her second run was bad for her. She went from a metal hopeful to out of the running.
In the area at the bottom of the hill, where the skiers collect after their runs, she sat and then broke down crying. She was feeling sadness so she expressed herself in tears. Then another competitor, her friend, came and consoled her.
The lonely man, when he saw this, thought, “That is why women are neater. For both things. The crying, and her friend patting her. That is why they are neater,” he thought.
