Oh dear me. I see men all over this forum cringing and crossing their legs as they read that little blurb!

In fairness to the men on the forum, I found a nasty little section about how to tell if an unborn baby is a boy or girl.

Always up for a bit of wincing -- clicked on the link.
People who cringe and scissor their limbs reading the quoted entries on this thread should try looking at the photos in ReSearch #12 (Modern Primitives). Now there's a book I'd rather not peruse again. My friend heard me groaning all the way down the hall. Thanks for the notice, though! Edit: In case you're curious.

The tourniquet advice seemed like the sort of thing a couple would buy into if they had six kids all the same sex, not much knowledge of science, and a great deal of desperation.
I wondered more how anyone would believe that eau de week-old grubs could attract anyone, or whether you'd want any of the resultant attention. Maybe the zombie legends actually come from Renaissance Italy. |
