DATA

I've been asked to support what
I'm saying, so here's some
data for a few different cases:  SLUT, WHORE, PERM

      data would
      be acceptable?

Say I go out on a date with a woman.
Things seem like they're going well
at first, then for some reason thing's

or "Hmm.  Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned     to ask why you lost.

much more hope for psych
experiments with people                  "Girls just want to have fun." But
