- Barry,

- If someone didn't like the personal space invasion methodology in studying
- men, I'll bet they'll hate a study of women.
- I'm wondering if this is related to women's tendency to go to the
- bathroom together. Perhaps they are motivated by personal space invasion
- instead of inhibited, like us guys. I also wonder if there's a good
- sociobiological explanation, like the men who preferred more space during
- urination while out on the hunt had more reproductive success than those
- who got too close to their fellow hunters. Then there's also a good
- psychoanalytic interpretation ... which is obvious.
