This reminds us of that H2 (horrible yet humorous) joke:

Q. What do you call a woman with a brain?

A. Pregnant with a son.

Needless to say (hopefully), Eric Scheske holds women, especially his long-suffering and saintly wife, in considerably higher regard. Which is why we found [this article](http://www.network54.com/Forum/message?forumid=245234&messageid=1115839061&ref=thedailyeudemon.com) about our culture's reaction to pregnant women bothersome. Excerpts:

> When volunteer groups were shown images of a woman doing various types of work, but in some cases wearing a pillow to make her look pregnant, most judged the "pregnant" woman less competent.

> So strong is this last stereotype that when a satirical Web site posted a "study" saying that parents lose an average of 20 I.Q. points on the birth of their first child, MSNBC broadcast it as if it were true.
