been, has been the story of our struggle to get a better look at
your bottoms. Coupling, "Inferno," 2 June 2000, written by Steven

The obvious and fair solution to the housework problem is to let men
do the housework for, say, the next six thousand years, to even
things up. The trouble is that men, over the years, have developed
an inflated notion of the importance of everything they do, so that
before long they would turn housework into just as much of a charade
as business is now. They would hire secretaries and buy computers
and fly off to housework conferences in Bermuda, but they'd never
clean anything. Dave Barry
Men want a woman whom they can turn on and off like a light switch.
