A Virgin that one should never trust
October 15, 2008
I was dumb to believe her when she claimed to be the ‘Mother of all Broadband’, but at the same time, a ‘Virgin’ too. Irony isn’t it?
So much for the “Mother of all Broadband”, eh?
Now, for reasons I don’t know, Mrs Yahoo! Mail won’t allow me to visit her anymore. I could only hope that this would only be temporary.
Guess it is not just me who are having trouble with the Virgin. Click here.

‘Mother of all Broadband’, but at the same time, a ‘Virgin’ too.
That sounds so funny.
Sorry Mr Branson , how possible all the selected workers who even gained popularity in the television came out with such a lame
outcome?

I believe the connotation of it being a female is supposedly to give it motherly characteristics. you know, like they say the mother earth, not the father earth. the mother land. not the father land. A stereotypical gender role – female is all loving passive and motherly.
The other day in my lecture, my lecturer gave the origin of gender roles, which is believed to have originated during the cavemen years (and it has gone through a series of evolution). Supposedly in those days, the men were the breadwinner of the family, they went out hunting and the women stayed in the caves or went collecting fruits near the cave. That could be why men are generally good with maps (and they have better visual-spatial ability too) because maps are written by men for men. Going back million of years ago, if the men were lost during hunting, all they could do was venture their way back or ask another men, because all the women were in the cave. it’s funny but the stereotype isn’t.
that is to explain where virgin gets its motherly status. little do I know of its not behaving though.i’m hopeless with directions.thank god for memorization, getting lost can be avoided.don’t think my gender should be blamed for such lacking in uhhh visual-spatial ability.

Well Shark i read such thing in few book tho.One of the book is Why Mars and Venus Collapse?and its mainly because of man and woman are hardwiredly different.Its funny when the author said that Guys always think about solution when the woman is telling him about her problem and often they think that woman is actually blaming him for whatever her problem is.But the fact is , when woman have problem she prefer to tell people about it then she feels better.But while as for man he will always think about How To Solve her problem though the only thing the woman want is someone to listen to her.Not to solve her problem.
I know I’m out of the topic.But since Virgin wants to be treated as a woman(mother n virgin?) so they don’t really know how to solve people’s problem.but they have the talent Just to listen to that problem.
Maybe.
