Should women even ride bicycles?

Maybe this explains why when I got married, my mother-in-law said girls shouldn't run because all that up and down jarring motion would cause the uterus to fall out.

That and few other crazy comments. Looking back I think it was pretty funny.

My mother had similar ideas. After I spent a day shoveling gravel as a teenager, she told me it my affect my organs and forbid me to do it again. And not so many years ago, she tried to tell me that pulling tree stumps wasn't a proper thing for me to do. I was always good at ignoring her advice.
