I needed an excuse? Maybe if I'm doing it more than 3 times a day I'll want an excuse. Any less than that and it is a reflex like breathing.

If this was true, wouldn't men already not suffer from hay fever?

Hmm, I *started* getting hay fever when I was around 13. Which kinda doesn't jibe somehow.

Speaking of which - I feel the sniffles coming on. Gotta go.

I stopped having hay fever when i was 13 or 14, so it might make sense.

Well the men of CP will start to get their hay fever symptoms back. The jailbait thread was finally closed.
