Why it sucks to be an American man

I'm sitting at a table with four full-grown women.

The subject of perfume comes up.

Four of them say they don't own a bottle -- not one goddam bottle -- of perfume. Let alone, use the stuff.

Now, in many cases, that could be A Good Thing. But, in principle, it means they've forsaken one incredibly important element of allure.

I hate that.

Really hate it.
