Gender Crisis


Theo was interrogating me about the feminine-product vending machine in the women's room the other day. And although I'm generally a fan of full honesty with kids, that was not the day I wished to explain the menstrual cycle to my son. So I finally said, "No, you can't use it. It's not for kids; it's for women." Theo stared at it and said wistfully, "I wish I could be a woman...."

Oh, my son, if you only knew that you were basing that statement on the very LEAST appealing part of being a woman....
