Here is what I've concluded from our completely random, scientific sampling of women's RE's:
1. My RE is a bitch.
2. My RE is not well-hung, and thus, the stud fee I was charged should be refunded.
3. My assumption that a female RE would be predisposed to greater empathy and understanding is WAY OFF BASE.
4. I should switch to Tessa's RE if mine doesn't straighten up and fly right. Special Note: This is handy, considering we apparently go to the same practice.
And the big lesson:
5. There is not one overriding personality type for REs (though there may be two, bitchy women and attractive, grandfatherly men). My assumption that they all suck is apparently false. Good to know!
