I believe that fitting a new plug should be a task which all boys are able to do, irrespective of ethnicity, before they turn 14.

Caleb was obviously having a little joke with us, pretending that women don't have houses or electrical appliances.

I believe I don't have the faintest idea why you went to all the trouble of registering just to post that.

What should age and ethnicity have to do with it?
