96% of all statistics are made up on the spot... and 54% of all statistics are hugely biased towards one direction or the other. So I'm somewhat leery of going whole hog on into the belief category on this one.... mostly cause it's pretty damn sad if that is the case. And did you know that 79% of all statistics are made up on the spot?

And I'm sure you know that there are all sorts of ways to fudge the numbers with a stat like this, but still just yuck! Who could do such a thing to a woman to start with... and secondly a woman who is carrying humanities most precious cargo!?!
