RE Italian men, did you see 60 Minutes on Sunday? I had thought about addressing this to X the other day but I know she doesn't deign to watch TV. You and I watch the same schlock.

The segment was on mama's boys, as they call them. It seems that the population in Italy is going down because men in their 30s and 40s are living at home with mom and not getting married. These are men who can afford their own places. A couple of them actually had their own beautiful homes, although never more than a kilometer or so from mom. Still, they lived in their childhood bedrooms in mom's house where she fixed what they like for dinner, picked up their rooms, ironed their clothes, etc. These were old women doing hard work fussing over their boys. The men said that women now don't want to play that traditional role so rather than marrying, the let mom do for them. They bring their girlfriends over for a quickie when their parents are out of the house.

LOL. Maybe that's the solution to the population/abortion problem.
