I like reading Bathroom Reader books because they are filled with fun facts and, you know where exactly where you are meant to read them. With other books, you're never quite sure where you're meant to read it.

Right. I recently read this fun fact! *gestures*

- In medieval England, wealthy gentlemen often wore clothing that left their genitals exposed. They wore short-fitting tunics with no pants. (If the genitals didn't hang low enough, padded, flesh-coated prosthestics called briquettes would be used.)

That is interesting. I wonder if it was more to show off to the ladies or to the men. Guess you kill two birds with one stone, err. pair of pants.

Hmm, good question. I hadn't really thought about it, but yeah, maybe it was both.
