"supposed to" - so what? Women originally weren't "supposed to" vote. Lots of things that once were "supposed to" be- aren't any more. And of course you have to ask- WHO SAYS "supposed to"? An unfortunately anachronistic document called the constitution. But, you're right. We aren't constitutionally governed anymore, it just doesn't matter. So, it's every anus for itself and everything is relative. Get ready for ever bigger dibs on everything you think you own. Ownership is such a legalistic, relative concept. You know your name makes me think Loofah sponge, every time I look at it- so waht does it mean? Yeah, I think it sucks. But too much inertia to change it again. Anyway, I decided to no longer use my full name as I had been and one of the words I thought of was "aloof", but didn't want to be just A loof. So,THE loof. Plus, "the fool" is in there. I know, you're thinking "but 'the idiot' isn't". Anyway, you probably think of Loofah sponge because you have a dirty mind. :) I sure like the ring of "X the unknown". How about "Loofah the unwashed".
