Oh me of little faith...I couldn't believe men had only been zipping it up since the 30s.

"In the 1930’s, a sales campaign began for children's clothing featuring zippers. The campaign praised zippers for promoting self-reliance in young children by making it possible for them to dress in self-help clothing. The zipper beat the button in the 1937 in the "Battle of the Fly," when French fashion designers raved over zippers in men's trousers. Esquire magazine declared the zipper the "Newest Tailoring Idea for Men" and among the zippered fly's many virtues was that it would exclude "The Possibility of Unintentional and Embarrassing Disarray."

Mia knows these things!

Excellent. LOL.

The following method of extrication might work to de-hoist hillary (being an clear-cut analog to the biten member) from hubby's zipper-to-power... Think it has possibilities?
