Do you know why only female mosquitoes bite us ??

It is a well known fact that only the female mosquitoes suck blood from the humans. but do you know why ?? ok here goes a story

There was a small farmer in a remote village in china. This farmer was Happy with whatever he had but the same was not true with his wife who was always geedy. She wanted to be the richest in china and used to pester her husband always.

Legend had it that the "Mystic Mountain" in southern china is a residence of gods with supernatural powers. This legend travelled far and finally reached the farmer's wife who was becoming more and more troublesome as the days passed by. The farmer inspite of all this trouble loved his wife and tried to explain to her that too much of money is not advisable.

Days passed by as the seasons changed and the winter came. Unable to withstand the deadly winter the farmer's wife passed away still thiking about the riches on her deathbed. The farmer who loved his wife dearly decided to take her to the Mystic Mountian to get her back to life. Having decided so he made the long and tedious journey to the mountain. At the foot of the mountaing he met an old man whose beard was as white as the snow. The farmer after narrating everything to the old man pleaded him to bring his wife back to life. The old man agreed to do so but warned the farmer that it might not be wise to go aginst the laws of nature. The farmer however, was reluctant to miss this oppurtunity. Seeing his determination the old man asked the farmer to put three drops of his blood on his wife's lips. The farmer quickly did as he was ordered and to his astonishment his wife came back to life. Both thanked the old man and left the mountain.

On their way home the farmer asked his wife to wait by the river side and he went to fetch some food for both of them. While he was gone a rich merchant who anchored his boats on the river shore came over to the lady and offered to marry her. This lady who always wanted to be rich went with that merchant ignoring her husband. The farmer returned back only to learn about his wife's disloyalty. He decided to take revenge and went to the merchant's palace. He found his wife sitting in a golden throan with a lot of servants around her. Seeing her former husband the lady said " I would not come with u as this is the life i had always yearned for !! ". The farmer in reply said " I no more have the desire to accept u as a wife. I came to take back the three drops of my blod." . The lady sensing an oppurtunity to get rid of him immediately cut her finger and gave him back the three drops of blood. As soon as she did this she started to shrink and turned into a mosquitoe. She started to bite her Ex-Husband to take those drops of blood. The farmer who was clever enough to sense this ran to the "Mystic Mountain" and became the old man's disciple. The mosquitoe( who cant enter the mountain now) meanwhile was able to suck only two drops of blood and still is searching for her husband to get the third.

So frenz this is the reason why only female mosquitoes bite humanbeings.
