The Problem with Britain's Universities

It started when I ventured the opinion the Brainiac's Professor Myang Lee might not actually be a real bone fide university professor.

My wife, who knows for certain that there is no "Glass Ceiling" and that under the right conditions any woman can achieve anything (or to be a little fairer, some woman somewhere can achieve it), immediately challenged me on this point. "What are you saying about Myang Lee?" she asked, "Are you saying that a good looking woman couldn't be a university professor?"

I just had to rise to the bait. "No its just that A) I don't believe that a real university professor would bother experimenting on whether a particular fruit floats, B) You never hear her speak and C) I think that she looks like a Total Bimbo".

And that's why I'm sleeping on the sofa.
