| 1125022 | 2010-08-07 12:11:00 | I can't help but be reminded of the latest cover of time magazine. Horrific is one thing I can say about it. I'm all for equal rights. But SurferJoe shared a good example of where Political Correctness goes too far. Let's not beat around the bush, there's simply some jobs where males exceed by far, but the reverse is true too. There are women who could easily carry 180+lb (81.6Kg for the rest of us) knuckles, but they're not exactly common. Hell, even I used to be able to carry 54Kg's worth of milk (three crates, at roughly 18Kg each) at once. I'm not ashamed to say; good luck finding a regular work-a-day woman who can do that all day. |

| 1125025 | 2010-08-07 14:54:00 | I guess the season's too cool in Upsidedown Land to organize a Chaucerian Walkabout to make your point though. I miss the old days of women marching naked in the streets to protest crass sexism. What I'm saying is that I actually miss the old binary system though. Anyway: Hooray for Geoffrey, wherever you are. |

| 1125028 | 2010-08-07 21:37:00 | WE have an old fashioned household I go to work and my wife stays home and does the cooking, cleaning, gardening, pets etc during the week. I know one or two old fashioned households where the woman does the cooking, cleaning, gardening, pets etc and goes to work as well. |
