Oh dear! Harriette's comment under the grocery store agenda entry made me laugh and I had to post what it brought to mind!  Yesterday while my hubby and I were at Safeway, I couldn't locate the feminine hygiene products for the life of me.  I peered up and down the aisles in the hopes that I would spot them but resorted to reading the signs placed for shoppers' convenience...

Well, lo and behold, once I read it, it was all so clear...why hadn't I thought of it?!  Of course they were in the cleaning supply aisle!  I told my husband the only logic this sort of categorizing brought to mind must have followed this sort of thought process...

*Male store manager overhears a woman patron in the feminine hygiene aisle complaining that they really should place these products in a place where women could have more privacy.

*Male store manager contemplates the best aisle where women would not be invaded by the gocking or insensitively oblivious male species and smiles at his realization.

*Male store manager has all feminine hygiene products moved to the cleaning supply aisle and goes home to his wife with a feeling of great accomplishment.

**Foot in mouth disclaimer:  Please allow me to apologize if the phrase "gocking or insensitively oblivious male species" has offended anyone!  I will be the first to say that my hubby is absolutely wonderful and does practically ALL of our grocery shopping.  It was merely a portrayal of fictitious characters that were plagued with stereotypical tendencies - a far cry from my own reality and most of yours, I'm sure!
