It's a little-known scientific fact that men who keep putting the toilet seat down grow them.

This phenomenon is well-known among ethnologists who have studied primitive cultures. It is called "couvade" and has been documented in a variety of locations.

It is similar to sympathetic childbirth, in which a father, geographically distant from and out of communication with his wife undergoes excruciating abdominal pains followed by a subjectively described feeling of emptiness, at the very time of delivery.

This has been described to me by veterans who were overseas during WW II while their wives were pregnant and giving birth back in the States.

Feministas don't even know the half of it.
