Amusing quote
So I learned why men...or people give flowers to women... I also was highly amused by this scene from the Bachelor where he needs to get married or he looses a hundred million dollar inheritance...
Carolyn: Your outlook is so totally patriarichal, right down to these roses, which are the classic male overture to seduction.
Jimmie: You know, that's funny. I always just thought of them as flowers, they certainly smell like flowers.
Carolyn: No, It's symbolism. They just happen to be the plant's vagina.
Jimmie: Come on!
Carolyn: It's true! That symbolism is the reason men give flowers.
Jimmie: Why would a man give a woman a symbolic vagina?
Carolyn: Why wouldn't he? It just happens to signal that his intentions go beyond platonic. It lets her know what he ultimately wants.
Jimmie: Carolyn, I'm not interested in your goddamn vagina, all right? I just wanna marry you!
