I don't get the impression they are concerned about female homosexuality.
But they are concerned about feminists. Which is what a teenage encounter with a Playboy helped turn me into*. I don't know if that contributes to this really rather methodologically dodgy study into whether Playboy makes you gay, though. Mostly, it's Eliza Dushku and Kate Beckinsale who are responsible for my gayness.**
*It has to be read in conjunction with Naomi Wolf and Germaine Greer for the full effect. I would guess most consumers of Playboy find them considerably less interesting reading, of course.
**Not in a particularly direct way. Sadly.
Gud, you need to come and talk to my hubby.
Don't think of it as extra work, think of it as a point scoring opportunity, and a remember that a half-assed vacuuming job looks almost as good as a careful vacuuming job.
I'm going to geaux out on a limb and say they were trying to be cute with the wording.
I thought so. Why is it that governmental offices think that cute wording equals happier constituents?
I would be happy to have someone doing a half-assed vacuuming job (or, rather, sweeping, since I have no carpet here) in my house. As long as I'm not the one doing it. :)

Heh.
Somewhat relatedly, here is my Guide to Cleaning a Room in Five Minutes:
- Pick the one thing that most contributes to a room's messy appearance.
- Clean/take care of that one thing.
- Repeat until five minutes are up.
This wont' work too well on a room that's overwhelmingly messy, but it can make a big difference on a moderately messy situation.
Thank god I never go on trips. I work until 10pm occasionally and the house is a disaster, and last night he couldn't even get the kids in bed. Even when I leave specific suggestions ('please empty the dishwasher'), nothing happens.

So true! I end up with junk (mail, etc.) on the part of my sofa that I'm not sitting on, and just dealing with that makes the room almost instantly not a pig sty.
Or, you know, the four pairs of shoes in front of my couch right now.
Can we have Gud cloned? I promise to never criticize my Gud clone's housekeeping.
