You mean they are a nation of Lily von Shtupp's ?

Whatever. I seriously doubt that French men (or most men) for that matter could deal with morning sickness, joint pain, pelvic floor pain, stretch marks, and of course labor or worse, a c-section. Most men I know become big babies when they get a cold!

Maybe this is why they have tampon machine's in French men's rooms.

I think it was Bob Newhart who said that if men had been created with breasts, we'd never get anything done.

It does look entertaining.

Everything goes back to Monty Python.

Judith: Well why do you want to be Loretta, Stan?
Loretta: I want to have babies.
Reg: You want to have babies?
Loretta: It's every man's right to have babies if he wants them.
Reg: But you can't have babies.
Loretta: Don't you oppress me.
Reg: I'm not oppressing you, Stan. You haven't got a womb. Where's the foetis going to gestate? You going to keep it in a box?
--------[Loretta starts crying.]
Judith: Here. I've got an idea. Suppose you agree that he can't actually have babies, not having a womb, which is nobody's fault... not even the Roman's, but that he can have the right to have babies.
--------[This seems to satisfy him.]
Francis: Good idea, Judith. We shall fight the oppressors for your right to have babies, brother. Sister, sorry.
Reg: What's the point?
Francis: What?
Reg: What's the point of fighting for his right to have babies when he can't have babies?
Francis: It is symbolic of our struggle against oppression.
Reg: Symbolic of his struggle against reality.

"Eighty-six percent of the fathers queried said they were ready "to take a paternity leave of several months to live their fatherhood more intensely," provided it caused "minimal financial impact.'"

Well no kidding. If I could take several months off and still get paid most of my salary I would take that deal in a second. I really doubt however, that these guys would be spending most of that time with their kids.

Is that the international sign for "No" across the front of his trunks?
