I have one!
Womens rights!  I'm sorry Melody. You'll have to forgive me. Living in Oklahoma still in teepees and horse drawn carriages, I'm still trying to get progressive in my thinking. I just found out yesterday that women can vote. Seriously though...I've been asked more than once by people outside of Oklahoma if we still live in teepees.

I go down to Texas 6-7 times a year to see my family and go to throwing competitions. Anyway, my wife and I had to roll our eyes when they built the rest stop on the border of Oklahoma and Texas and there's teepees all over the damn place as shade over the benches and tables. Thanks Oklahoma for keeping the stereotype.

uhhhhhh....I don't know if this is an English language foible or not.
I just read my post on page 2 and I have no idea what I was talking about. I remember posting something I thought was a pun, but, uh.....
I think I need to go lie down

As someone who descended from five generations of Oklahoma women, you can imagine how funny the notion of oppressed women is to me! Believe me, these tough old Okie broads were not oppressed! No one would have the balls to even try! here

Seriously though...I've been asked more than once by people outside of Oklahoma if we still live in teepees. I get asked from time to time if NZ has electricity. Most of those asking are usually asking me on a public forum or disscusion group. I usually tell them that we take turns on the pushbike generator so as to have the internet running.
