Well, I thought at least we would discard sexism when it was pragmatic to do so.

I mean, honestly.

Problem: "We want it done, but only women can do it."

Answer: "I guess we need a plan B."

?!?!?!?!?

That's hilarious, but sadly it's not far wrong, either. :(

When I first read this the first thing that came to mind was an X-files eppisode where they get trapped on this ship and the water is aging them and Scully ages slower because women have higher fluid levels then men anyway...
That being said, I wonder if the men are hydrating more, less, or just differently than they did on the ground...Maybe it's just less booze??
The only other thing I could think of is hormones, but I don't see how that could do it....

Hey, you come up w/ a better explanation.




Very true that women are spacier ('tween the ears) than men.
As for the men, without normal earth pressure and gravity, clearly their egos
would expand to a degree that puts pressure on the cranium, i.e. a swelled head.
The obvious solution is to deflate their egos making them fit for space flight.

I won't go on, as the space between my ears is needing a sugar fix.

Tony, women can be sexist, too.

Oo-ooo! I got it!!

What is the most basic difference between men & women?

Women eat 5 to 10 times as much chocolate as men.

CHOCOLATE must be the cure!

Me and my chocolate death brownies challenge that assertion!

Bow to the will of my evil pastry!

Dunno why anyone would think I am a guy. Did I sound rational for a moment?

The important thing is to get the chocolate to the astronauts!
