<p>She, then, backed away from me and unmistakably signaled me that this answer was wrong. But, it wasn&#8217;t. Though, since then, and because I am such an honest liar I have to offer my bathtub to every woman.</p>
<p>Excuse me, but if you are a woman (preferably 21 or older) may I offer you to take a bath at my place?</p>
