I was really (I stress the really) bored and just randomly surfing the net... when, I happened to come upon a discussion related to wether or not toilet paper should come out from above or underneath (odd I know, but hey, boredom can do some weird things to your mind) I've actually come across a few things on this topic before and find it strangely entertaining... especially the thing about male and female stereotypes... funnily enough, I've noticed that it's true...

"It's a constant battle at my house with toilet paper and paper towels in the workshop or kitchen. I'll put it coming over the top, a female will change it coming under the bottom, I'll change it back. It's endless.

I was told, and believed it, and have since fully rationalized it, that it was a difference in sexes. Men, anatomically speaking, sort of fall out from above, while women sort of slide up from underneath. Men, characteristically, like things spilling over the top, or overflowing, while women, emotionally, like to have things tucked away safely. Historically, men participated in activities which aggressively had them throwing things overhand. Hunting, throwing spears, swinging clubs, football, baseball, etc... Historically, women participated in activities which gently had them carrying things underhand. Picking berries, roots, and plants, holding infants secure. Men are into high fives a lot more than women. When men are victorious, we throw our hands in the air in a victory dance, reaching for the sky. When women are victorious, they want a big warm hug. Yeah okay, some overgeneralizations, but it's hard for puny humans to overcome millions of years of evolution in just a few short centuries."

...earlier I said that the stereotype thingy's were true... actually I've noticed two exceptions to that rule... both me and my mother like our toilet paper the "male" way, and can't stand it the "female" way... meh... who knows...

Oops! I almost forgot... I'm going to Montreal for the weekend to visit family (they just moved from Romania... they're hungarian... don't ask) with my dad... I probably wont be able to post again until sunday or tuesday (yes, I know, I'm missing monday, but I have dance) ... Oh and I've added another link to a friends site... go and see.

'Til next week,
Ally
