Oh, golly! Now I'll have time to bake a pie!
You may have heard that yesterday was International Women’s Day. So what did the Vatican’s newspaper do to honor the occasion? Why, demand you little ladies give thanks to the washing machine of course.
Sigh.
Yes, that’s right. Forget the pill or women’s liberation. The Osservatore Romano, has decided us vessels of sin should be most thankful we save an extra few hours a week washing our man’s skivvies:
….the humble domestic appliance had done more for the women’s liberation movement than the contraceptive pill or working outside the home.
