Oh, that's right you never married. Some of us can guess why.

Childless by choice (safe sex, y'all!) Proud atheist for decades. Successful teacher. Successful attorney. The antithesis of Ayn Rand. Nobody's bitch. A dangerous woman by those parameters in the eyes of Lindsey. Glad I don't live in SC.

If anyone in SC is listening, he should lose.
Seems he's figured out a place for everyone but himself.
