Boy's prayers answered. Although the answer was not the one the boy wanted, it was at least an answer. Most prayers are ignored. The boy was, of course, appreciative.

Surgeon Generals have been 'missing in action' on the circumcision debate too. I remember back when Joycelen Elders proposed that masturbation was natural and should be taught as part of sex education she was widely booed by the ignorati. But she had a point: most boys and girls discover how to do it as part of their maturation process, and it would be very nice if the educational system at least acknowleged that masturbation was only natural, and that furthermore it was a good way to become sexually proficient while remaining disease free. Clearly, if the Surgeon General had spoken up concerning the 'efficacy' of infant sexual mutilation for medical reasons, the American Jewish Establishment would not have been able to confer the status of 'honorary Jew' on the vast majority of American males during the latter half of the twentieth century. (Ignorati: literally, 'the ignorant ones.' Opposite of cognoscenti. I invented the word today for use in this post.)

What Evolution left behind. Very interesting! The prepuce is not mentioned.

Today is Friday the thirteenth; also, I have exactly thirteen beers available, a true coincidence. Concerning the image above, the woman is quite good-looking of course, but her crotch is spectacular! Front and rear gusset lines are (for me) a most charming aspect of women's underpants. Beer-wise, I am drinking 3.2 Natural Light, not Bud, but I like Bud too.
