Regarding Barb MSNot's article: The male brain cell difference is easily explained. It has to do with long term memory about sex. Women have fewer long term memory cells so they will not remember the discomfort of pregnancy. Men have more so that they can retain everything they tried as teenagers and young adults. Then they have the backgound they need to interrogate their daughter's dates. My oldest daughter turns 13 next month. And she thinks I embarass her now. :-) Phil G. [log in to unmask]
