First it was dysfunctional families, now it's dysfunctional reptiles. I don't watch much TV but last night I caught part of a commercial on reptile dysfunction. I wasn't able to see the entire commercial because my children distracted me insisting that I unlock the door and let them inside.

It seems some people are never at a loss for some sort of humanitarian or reptilian cause. The commercial seemed to be saying there was a product that would help reptiles when they were ready. The sexism in the commercial was obvious. Because of the sexist assumption that women are afraid of reptiles the commercial kept saying for him to use it to make her happy.

Probably the product helps endangered reptiles reproduce. The commercial did include a warning to be careful to control your reptile or you might end up having to see a doctor.

In this world torn by war, poverty, starvation, and the Hilton/Richey feud, it seems that people would focus on more important issues. But we have groups like PETA, etc. that prefer to put the imagined needs of animals above people. Then again, can you imagine a world without a blue tailed skink or a gila monster?
