Fair enough, far be it from me to argue with a dragon! Besides, apart from it being slightly provocative I don't think you have anything to worry about....

Did you see the brochure on how to dress to visit Bethel? Someone there hates denim.

Heck, sometimes I even wear a bow tie...
Doesn't Santa look happy, with me on his knee??

ziddina - it appears your scales are chafing him...
crazycate - the "what to wear at bethel" pamphlet was indeed atrocious. In fact I wouldn't mind getting hold of one, as I'm sure they'll be limited edition by now. You're right, the rule of thumb appears to be "denim is strictly for building kingdom halls, at ALL other times brothers should wear their cream slacks with pride".
n.b. thanks for the link - I've just seen the scans. My life is now complete! It truly is shocking stuff....

My GAWD - when I read the OP, I thought you had made it up as a work of humorous satire!

minimus - very true. The sad thing is you can bet some parents will be taking this very seriously and running off photocopies for every time these discussions arise.
james_woods - I GENUINELY wish I had made it up!!
Another strange and bizarre worksheet is that found on page 209 "What would you do?" It features a bizarre scenario in which a boy (Mike) slaps a girl (Judy) out of jealousy, when Mike catches Judy talking to another boy. Both Mike and Judy give their reactions to the slapping incident. The reader is asked to draw meaningful conclusions about their relationship. It's seriously creepy stuff....

WOW! The borg has to control everything
Has the society addressed whether it is proper to stand or stay seated when men pee?
I am surprised they have not come out with a male only and female only "handbook"
