I [i]LOVE[/i] the way you twisted my comment from it's original form to fit what in your mind is a highly educated retort. If you had read my comment with a little less scrutiny (who knew that a slashdotter would be like this also?), you would have picked up the fact that I was admitting I am [b]WRONG(TM)[/b] all of the time. Apparently "In communist Russia..." and "...Profit!" comments are funny, but when someone cracks a joke about the age-old battle of the sexes, it gets people's panties in a bunch. Lesson learned.
Two days ago my fiancee and I were watching TV and a commercial came on which depicted a female runner with one prosthetic, carbon fiber leg. I turned to her and said, "that's not fair, she'll have an advantage." She asked why and I proceeded to explain that the artificial leg would cause less strain on her body while "normal" runners might be starting to fatigue. She however did not agree. Let's just say the moment I saw this story, I had to tell her right away and prove that a man, in fact, can be right about something.
