Vibrators are better than men because...

Textbook favors donkeys over wives - Peculiar Postings - MSNBC.com

It sounds like the old "vibrator vs. men" thing, but in reverse. And not as crude (I hope).

"...the donkey is a shade better [than the housewife]," continues the text meant for 14-year-olds, "for while the housewife may sometimes complain and walk off to her parents' home, you'll never catch the donkey being disloyal to his master."

Vibrators are better than men because they'll keep going until you're satisfied. Vibrators are better than men because they won't give you back-talk. Vibrators are better than men because they'll never cheat on you. Vibrators are better than men because... ok, I'll stop there.

My point? I'm sure that the women in India that complained about this text don't know about the "vibrator vs. men" thing; but I still find it ironic. If they DO...and they actually joke about vibrators and men, then shame on them for setting a double-standard! But, I'm sure that's not the case.

Still ironic, though...
