The Great Heterosexual Penis?

bliumchikIt really was as embarrassing as my drunk post made it sound.
Mum: You still like boys and not girls, I hope?
Me: Why do you hope?
Mum: Cos, you know. Boys are better. They have the equipment.
My brain: AUGH. *Shuts down*
My mouth (on autopilot): Technically these days you can buy equipment in stores.
Mum: It's just not the same...
My brain: *snaps out of it in horror*
Me: WE WILL NEVER SPEAK OF THIS AGAIN.
The story prompted some discussion at school as to how various parents would react to their daughter batting for the other team - including people I'm pretty sure are not (although technically most of us aren't batting at all... this metaphor needs work.1). Diana had conveniently already given her parents a Hypothetical by cunningly telling them that her Chinese teacher reckoned Asian parents would kick you out of home, and would you really mum?
Her answer was, basically, "Nooot... kicked out as such. But I would nag you until you broke up with her."
Ruxi ventured to predict that her mother would tell her she'd broken her heart, and then break her legs.
Nicky, bless'er, smugly declared that her parents would simply be relieved that she wasn't pregnant.
So I'm thinking team European Parents win two to zero point five here.
Speaking of Ruxi (but otherwise unrelated), she caused hysterics at the bus stop today by donning Jenny's red headband with a bow on it. It was just like that scene from Saiunkoku where the official takes off his mask and everybody is blinded by his beauty2 - for some reason Ruxi in a headband with a bow on it has the Cute Power of several pet stores worth of chinchillas. She'll never live it down :P
1 For one thing, who's pitching? And can we buy hot dogs?
2 For a given value of "just like," alright.
