Apparently having a baby can boost your brain power AND if you wait til you're 40+ to have a baby you are more likely to live to 100!

That's amazing.  I'm a flakey air-headed quivering wreck and I have been blaming it on my three pregnancies.  Going to have to find a new excuse.  :-\\\\

But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

If this is true, then I want a refund.  I think mine is faulty.

Sign me up for a refund. I am nearly 40 now, and Xan has come close to killing me, two times in his very, nearly three years on the planet. So, where are my extra smarts, and longevity? Huh? Huh???  ;D
