Who Said?
“The mission of women is to be beautiful and to bring children into the world. This is not at all as rude and unmodern as it sounds."
We are here! We are HERE! WE ARE HERE!

All Things Considered, April 2, 2008 · I don't know what sins Dr. Seuss committed in his life to be doomed to have Jim Carrey star in movie adaptations of his books. But I came out of Horton Hears a Who, with my wife and my three excited and happy daughters, irritated by something even more annoying than Carrey's tics. In a new subplot added by the filmmakers, the mayor of Whoville has 96 daughters. He has one son. Guess who gets all his attention? Guess who saves the day? Go ahead, think about it, I'll wait.
Best essay I've read in a long time.
