Roger, all I'm saying is that I wish my
sister would learn to read a subway map.

:01:04
By saying that, you disregard
the primary importance...

:01:06
of utility in human relationships.
:01:08
Our ability--
Men's ability to read maps...

:01:12
to navigate, makes us useful.
:01:13
You should discourage your sister
from even looking at a map.

:01:16
Are you saying that we women
have an inferior sense of direction?

:01:21
Which way is north,Joyce,
without looking around?

:01:23
What?
:01:25
You heard me. Point north.
Quick. North.

:01:27
Quick. North.
:01:28
North. North.
:01:32
- You're right.
- Is he right?

:01:34
- He's right.
- Very impressive.

:01:36
As she has throughout history...
:01:38
the female responds to the male
who displays the most utility.

:01:42
By honing those skills
which make me useful...

:01:45
I stave off
my inevitable obsolescence.

:01:48
You stay home honing your ability
to program a VCR?

:01:51
My VCR's been flashing 1 2:00
for three years.

:01:56
What else, Roger?
:01:58
Oh, driving a standard shift.
Lifting heavy things.

:02:02
- Air guitar.
- Yes, yes.

:02:04
Go ahead and chuckle, okay?
:02:06
But until women evolve the ability
to move objects telepathically--

:02:09
and they will--
:02:11
physical strength
remains a primary utility.

:02:13
Here's to brute strength then.
:02:17
Roger, you're forgetting
a very important male utility.

:02:22
What's that? Barbecuing?
:02:26
Sex.
:02:27
Yeah. I want a guy to do more
than just program my VCR.

:02:32
Oh, I'll program your VCR, baby,
like you never had it.

:02:36
It's a top-loader.
You think you can handle that?

:02:38
Interestingly, a group of scientists
in England...

:02:41
just announced their intention
to fertilize an egg...

:02:43
without the use of sperm cells.
:02:47
I don't understand that.
:02:49
Every cell in the human body
contains a copy of the genome pattern.

:02:53
The only reason sperm cells
have all the fun is that up until now...

:02:56
they were the only ones with access.
:02:58
Within Christopher's lifetime,
artifiicial insemination...
