... Poetic Liberal...

Sir, what is your opinion on women who pursue higher education?

Hmm, a woman who pursues her career and education is admirable – like an art work, a classy painting.

And, as a wife?

[A snooty, patronizing chuckle] You can’t hang your “classy paintings” in the kitchen, now can you? And that’s where a wife is supposed to be.


[Thinking silence] Ah, well, thank you, sir. I was having trouble defining an ass-hole lately, you just helped me out there. [Smiles] .

Should've smacked him on the head with a copy of "The Hours" DVD and asked him what he'd done if he had Virginia Woolf as a wife.

We are talking about more than half of their race here, Majaz, it sounds irrationally ambitious to educate so many of them...


Especially when The Hours are ticking like seconds...

In that case, just keep on blogging and 'educating' as many as you can.

It's what a dear friend calls, "Stickotherapy".

Hit em on the head and ask stuff later.
