While reading this thread, a ghastly song popped into my head. It was from the fifties (I'm up in years). It was from a musical called "Silk Stockings" and this song, "Without Love", was one of the big hits from the show. Here goes: "Without love, what is a woman? A treasure unemployed, Without love, what is a woman? A zero in the void, But with love, what is a woman? Serene contentment, the perfect wife, For a woman to a man is just a woman, But a man to a woman is her life." Aghhhh! Young girls believed this drivel in the 50's. (A common question was, "Are you going to college for your BA or your MRS?".)
