“I just hope, for their sake, that each husband goes home with the right table cloth!”

MY RESPONSE:

There are many things in this world that I just don’t understand. This is one of them. But as an American, I’m sure glad we get to compete with them. The phrase “half my brain tied behind me” comes to mind. When these societies “tie down their women”, it’s truly half their intellectual capital, half their energy, and half their “good ideas” going to waste. I’m not able to get inside a woman’s head, but why would you cooperate. Reminds me of the anti-war quote in CHURCH (*). Yeah, I know everything reminds me of something I wrote. fjohn

(*) “Yes, when we get out of here. We’re going to have to fix that. You know we control something that can get it done. Not the ballot box, but the other box. (A giant sucking sound as pure Miss Marie used that very rude idiom.) We can end war.” — character “Marie” being anti-war in CHURCH 10●19●62 Volume 1 Page 262
