The man has a point

...a recent conversation with a certain foreign gentleman I know, here called "Pedro"

Pedro: "Are your grandparents very traditional?"

Me: "Very. My grandfather doesn't think women should know how to read."

Pedro: "Well, maybe he's right. You know how to read and all you do is cavort with foreigners."


In totally unrelated news (hi, mom!)I suggest reading this article on the female orgasm, demonstrating that you don't have to be a fundamentalist Christian to get evolution horribly, horribly wrong. Like I tell all my gentlemen friends: just because it's biologically unimportant doesn't make it spiritual, dear.
