From a helpful anonymous commentor in Los Gatos, CA (left on an old post I am not linking back to, since that particular post ought to remain buried in the archives where no one can read it ever again):<\/p>\n

Did you ever think that, maybe, just maybe, you\u2019re really stupid and you\u2019re husband is not? And that\u2019s why your mind doesn\u2019t run to philosophy<\/span> and poetry the way his does? No offense, but you\u2019re clearly just not very intelligent compared to most women and are completely fulfilled by being \u2018barefoot and pregnant\u2019. That\u2019s nice for you. Well done for finding your calling in life.<\/i><\/p>\n

Please don\u2019t extrapolate your limited perspective on the world to generalities. Stick to being barefoot and pregnant and talking about babies if that\u2019s your calling in life. I can see why your mind doesn\u2019t run to philosophy easily. You\u2019re just not very bright.\u00a0<\/p>\n

No wonder I have so much trouble forming coherent arguments and learning the difference between lay and lie and it\u2019s and its! It\u2019s because I\u2019m really stupid! Damn, I wish someone had just told <\/i>me that sooner. It would have saved my poor brain countless hours of pointless, pesky thinking.<\/p>\n

Now if you\u2019ll excuse me, I\u2019m off to bake brownies while barefoot and talk adoringly to my pregnant belly! After all, those are the only two things in life that completely fulfill me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Thanks for liberating me, anonymous commentor! I\u2019m much happier in the kitchen where I belong. Also, you used the wrong form of \u201cyou\u2019re\u201d in your first sentence. But I only noticed that because my husband pointed it out.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
