"It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change"

Not that it has anything to do with what Darwin said, but I took my car to a car wash today. The manual type, not the ones you drive in and the machines do all the work for you. The main reason was that I had always driven by that place and watched people wash their cars in the Sun and I really wanted to try it for myself. Anyway, I went alone ...
I didn't do an excellent job cleaning the car. It was too heavy a job for me alone. I mean it's ok considering all the dirt from our road trip, but not as clean and shiny as I would expect it after a car wash. The mistake was that I hadn't noticed there are only guys using the manual wash. The ladies all used the drive in. I enjoyed the experience of course, and the Sun. But I'm wondering, was this a push too far? I do acknowledge that there are certain things in life that should be left to men, so is this one? Guess I won't know unless I try a few more times ...
