Homosexuality in nature is typically a display of Alpha-ism, as is true in the case of the ram.

Another portrayal of Alpha-ism in nature is when men drive trucks that are obviously extensions of their... Hm... not-so-Alpha. Ram, apparently, instills a feeling of Manliness in that rams will beat each other's heads in uncompromisingly until one or the other gives up, without ever having come to a logical or rational conclusion.

Therefore - Ram.

Now - Tell me why I always see women driving them? What exactly are they "extending" by owning said vehicle?

Women love to sit up high and "see over traffic".

The shorter and runtier they are, the more likely you will find them in a dually or crew cab.

Maybe makes 'em feel safe/invincible? Had one in a Subdivision cut me off on my bicycle big-time yesterday... she didn't expect me to catch her so quickly and I'd wager she peed herself when I damn near put my hand through her side window glass and bellowed at her. Safety schmafety.

Makes you wish you could just disable their car for 20 minutes, make them sit and think what they have done. My mom drove a Ford Aerostar to "see over traffic" although, she had a pretty good reason. She was born with one working eye, and she liked the big windows and she could judge the road better.

No offense... this is what I thought of when you said she was driving a van with one working eye.

Watch "The Alaska Experiment" some day. I wish I could do that. Maybe when my kids are grown.

Glad you've got a sense of humor... Does she always have that "rage" look in her eye while she's driving?
