Husband/Wife Bill of Rights

So I was procrastinating tonight...it's finals time for sure....and on my hotmail homepage was a headline for the Husband and Wife Bill of Rights. Because I am now a die-hard feminist, I had to check it out. Though it's really not worth it, if you want to see the complete thing it is at:

But there was one entry I found particularly worthy of attention:

From the wife's Bill of Rights:

"We have the right to flirt.Not the kind that makes you jealous, but the healthy practice of connecting with another person on a non-sexual level. Light banter is fun, quick-witted, and encouraging to our self esteem. It might even remind you of why you feel in love with us. And if it gets us a smoking deal on that new furnace or a free stay for the family at a million-dollar ski chalet, so much the better."

Wow. Of all the rights married women could declare, certainly she would choose the RIGHT to prostitute herself for a new furnace. Fascinating.
