SR, almost right, if you were referring to John’s comment.  100% of the human race devoured the forbidden fruit.  The woman ate it first.  Then her boyfriend followed his sweetheart.  No man could say no to a nekkid beauty who is also the only woman in the world.

 

We boys still do things a lot like that today.  We can’t help it: femininity is seductively beautiful.  We are powerless to resist the temptations put before us by female humanity.  We grovel helplessly, to the point of self-destruction, I tells ya!  Resistance of womankind’s overpowering beauty is futile, pointless.
