What on earth is wrong with that? I had hoped that people were a) intelligent enough, b) well enough acquainted with me that they would understand from that posting what I thought to be the obvious meaning of it: namely, that someday I may be married, living intimately with a woman, and, should this occur, it would be helpful for me to be acquainted with the things a woman has to go through. For crying out loud, here I was trying to be supportive, to show that this discussion was beneficial to both sexes, and I got flamed for it! Unfair! (Especially when another man had previously posted to that discussion an article that actually was a bit cutting.) -- -- Jeff Sargent {decvax|harpo|ihnp4|inuxc|ucbvax}!pur-ee!pucc-h:aeq Clearing /tmp
