SOMETIMES in life we find ourselves facing dilemmas so great that all you can hope for is that nobody else ever ends up in the same predicament.
That's how I felt when I recently discovered that construction has started on the world's first female-only town, where disobedient men will get a spanking.
On hearing of this utopia with the original name of Woman-town - obviously created by some marketing whiz - I wrestled with my conscience.
It lost and I won.
For if we can have Woman-town, what's to stop the blokes from making it a Man's-world?
Then, in our selfish quest for gender parity, could we hypothetically find ourselves living in a society with a restaurant chain called Hooters (or something similarly offensive) where men wash down high-cholesterol food with beer served by scantily-clad buxom women?
The 2.3sqkm town where women will make all the decisions is being built inside Shuangqiao district in China's Chongqing municipality.
Carved into the town gates will be the motto proclaiming its philosophy: "A woman never makes a mistake, a man must not refuse a woman's request."
Such wisdom, I briefly thought, must date back to Confucius's time and was probably first written by his disgruntled wife in her diary.
"Construction will take around two years, and the place will become a very good destination for entertainment and relaxation," says Li Jigang, director of Shuangqiao district tourism bureau.
"In any tour group entering this town, female members would play the deciding role concerning shopping and other items of the itinerary ... a disobedient man will be punished by kneeling on an uneven board or by washing dishes in a restaurant."
Well, when it's eloquently put like that, what's not to like?
A world where the toilet seat is never left up; the cinema only

Promise?
Mrs. Slim is way ahead of the curve.
Will the town be built by women?
who will kill the spiders?
I've never been good at following rules.
This has got to be like the “girl bar” episode of South Park.
Ha...more money for the PLA and ridicule of western culture through a new Chinese tourist trap. ...interesting.
(to paraphrase Chesty Puller) Good! That simplifies the problem."
Why do I feel a nightmare of a town populated by Helen Thomas clones coming on?
They didn't say anything about spanking. I want to hear about the spanking...

All I know is the whole "women only" island thing worked just fine when I was a kind.
I'm just saying...
Who will take out the garbage?
I want to hear what happens after the spanking. (in a “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” way).

And, after the spankings, the oral sex!
If men will be farmed for their sperm and then killed, I know a radical (Communist) lesbian who will move there!
Virginia Tech has caused you to miss a couple of major news stories this week. It seems that women no longer need men to produce sperm.
You got it.
