:07:01
So you've come down from Maine, huh?
:07:03
Well, you remember, C.B.
:07:05
Miss Novak is the farmer's
daughter librarian...
:07:08
...who spent the long, cold New England
winter writing her manuscript...
:07:12
...by the light of a lonely oil lamp.
:07:14
I'm at a loss here, ladies.
:07:16
I'm afraid I don't know exactly
what Miss Novak's book is about.
:07:20
Miss Novak's book is a serious work
of nonfiction entitled...
:07:24
Vikki, excuse me, it's right behind you.
:07:26
Would you mind pouring me
a cup of coffee?
:07:31
It's a serious work of nonfiction entitled
"Down With Love."
:07:36
- This is empty.
- If you're making a pot, I'll have a cup.
:07:39
- Count me in.
- Likewise.
:07:41
- Ditto.
- None for me, Vikki.
:07:42
Thanks, R.J.
:07:44
I'll have a Sanka.
:07:49
As I was saying, the central thesis of
Miss Novak's book, "Down With Love"...
:07:52
...is that women will never be happy
until they become independent...
:07:56
...as individuals by achieving
equal participation in the work force.
:08:00
And how do you propose
women do this, Miss Novak?
:08:02
By saying, "Down with love".
:08:06
Love is a distraction.
:08:08
If women stopped falling in love,
it would be the end of the human race.
:08:12
Not at all.
:08:13
I say women should refrain from love,
C.W., not sex.
:08:19
Isn't that the same thing?
:08:23
I mean, for women.
:08:25
It won't be, after they've mastered
the three levels in my book...
:08:29
...that will teach any woman
to live life the way a man does.
:08:32
Level 1 instructs women to abstain from
men altogether so they'll stop thinking...
:08:37
...that the pleasures experienced
during the sex act are related to love.
:08:41
They're not. As women will learn by
practicing the self-pleasuring technique...
:08:46
...that I've detailed in chapter 7,
entitled:
:08:50
"Up With Chocolate."
:08:51
You see, gentlemen, the female
experience is a biological reaction...
:08:55
...to chocolate that triggers the same
pleasurable responses in the brain...
:08:59
...as are triggered during sex.
