That explains it

Me: today a girl in class said the only reason that boys are generally bigger than girls is because of social constructs.

Friend: oh, so that must be why women have babies.

Me: ya, men probably got sick of doing it and threw childbearing in with the rest of the "oppress women" package.

You should add "social constructs" to your never-completed list of 1000 favorite things. They're constructive.

I have a friend in a Women and Gender Studies class. I will let her know of your theories. I am sure they will be groundbreaking.

My name is Maryn Smith (Muh-rin

Sm-ih-th). However, Maryn is not one of those names that can be shortened easily. Unless you take out all the vowels, which sounds a lot like 'Mern'. So my friends always called me Mern. Much later, I was talking to someone who was trying to find me on what was probably a very important list and she asked me what my name was and I said Maryn. And she looked at her list of highly influential and attractive people and eventually asked, "Smith?" I said yes and carried on to my very important business. As we walked off, my friend Caitlan said, "You totally should have said, 'No actually it's pronounced Smeet-er... the 'h' is silent.'"

And that is how I became

Mern Smeether.
