From Nurse Jones,
I ran across this in a magazine that Jay subscribes to, in an article
on sexual harrassment:
''...an incident in which an eminent professor of government, renowned
for what was then known as "salty language" grew steadily more
irritated by a Radcliffe student who persisted in sitting in the front
row and knitting throughout his lectures. Thinking to resolve the
problem once and for all, he finally thundered, "Young lady, it's time
you were told that Sigmund Freud has discovered that knitting is
simply a sublimated form of masturbation." To which the young woman,
unfazed by saltiness, responded,
"Professor, when I knit, I knit, and when I masturbate, I masturbate."
I thought y'all might like that.
Nurse Jones,
for whom masturbation
is a sublimated form
of knitting,
wishes she were back in school,
where she always sat
in the front row.
