Can our Sons Peel a Banana?

I was sitting in my office at the computer and Hazel called out do you want a banana? I replied yes and she brought me one, partly peeled. She laughed and said once a mother, always a mother.

That raises deep concern about our grown sons. They are men now but I have to wonder if they learned how to peel their own bananas? Are mothers the reason men are viewed by women as often inept in their personal lives?

Aki and Pam, do you have to peel bananas for your husbands? Laura, is Chris similarly afflicted?

Your other son would sneak up and out flank the banana, then fillet it with K-Bar knife.

If Chris depended on me to open his banana, he would be out of luck. Unless, of course, I had a sharp knife.

Sadly, I have to peel bananas for Laura.
