Sent via e-mail from Ray of Beale St. It might be offensive to some, but it redeems itself in the end. It might also be regarded as part social commentary:

The Geography of a Woman:
- Between the ages of 18 - 21 a woman is like Africa or Australia: She is half discovered, half wild and naturally beautiful with bushland around the fertile deltas.
- Between the ages of 21 - 30 a woman is like America or Japan: Completely discovered, very well developed and open to trade especially with countries with cash or cars.
- Between the ages of 30 - 35, she is like India or Spain: Very hot, relaxed and convinced of its own beauty.
- Between the ages of 35 - 40 a woman is like France or Argentina: She may have been half destroyed during the war but can still be a warm and desirable place to visit.
- Between the ages of 40 - 50 she is like Yugoslavia or Afghanistan: She lost the war and is haunted by past mistakes. Massive reconstruction is now necessary.
- Between the ages of 50 - 60 she is like Russia or Canada: Very wide, quiet and the borders are practically unpatrolled but the frigid climate keeps people away.
- Between the ages of 60 - 70 a woman is like England or Mongolia: With a glorious and all conquering past but alas no future.
- After 70, they become Albania: Everyone knows where it is, but no one wants to go there.

The Geography of a Man:
- Between the ages of 15 - 70 a man is like Iraq.............ruled by a dick.
