So true. There does seem to be an unfathomable brain-dead quality behind their rationalization -- I mean what is so difficult about realizing that the needs and desires of each individual are *not* defined by their gender-specific hormones alone? Given the obvious ability of people to use their brains to subjugate just about every natural impulse a person might have (i.e. like keeping to a religious "purity" promise as a teen...) why is it so difficult for religious people to also realize that men and women are far, far, far more influenced by the organ in the skulls rather than the organ in the pelvis region?
The success earlier this month of the first baby to be born from a transplanted womb may soon free up women from the one last gender-bound tasks left to them....Any forward thinking men out there who share my sense of adventure and think it might be a cool experience to be the first (or second or third) man to gestatate a baby to term (c-section required, of course)?
....Might be quite the bonding experience for you and the wife to compare and contrast notes about whose pregnancy was better or worse....
