And it's printed only 1 side.

I love this. I have a few puzzles from China that state they are for men only. Carter and I need to quit I guess.

I'm sorry for my bad translation.

Actually, the instruction has no description that the puzzle is for males.
According to my dictionary,
the word "men of today" means people who live today (including males and females).
I felt it strange during the translation.
But I finally followed the dictionary.

I've been told too many times this week I couldn't do something because I'm a woman. I guess I was super sensative when I read that. Don't worry.
