Here’s why I read Amy Mossoff’s The Little Things, every day, without fail:

[Amy:] Does the horse have a tail?
[Three-year-old Samantha:] YES.
Does Toby have a tail?
YES.
Does Jinx have a tail?
YES.
Do you have a tail?
NO, I HAVE A VAGINA.

I always thought it would be cool to have a tail. However, now that I think about it, I’d rather have a vagina.

(Wow, I can’t believe that I just wrote that. Ah well, in the interests of mortifying the Objectivist prudes yet again, I’ll let it remain as is.)

Amy also writes thought-provoking posts, such as A Different Audience. The comments on that post are well-worth reading. I think that Kelly got the point about hierarchy of values exactly right.
