Quote: Men & Oxygen Deprivation

“I used to wonder what it was that made men prone to injuries like this, but I think I've got it figured now.”

“Oh? And what's that, Marlene?” Neville asked as she slathered pain relieving salve on his arm. He'd refused the potion.

“Oxygen deprivation,” she replied, a bit too smugly.

“Oxygen deprivation?” Martel asked as he fired off another shot. “What's that got to do with anything?”

“Men suffer from it continuously,” she told them as she immobilized Neville's arm. At their blank looks, she rolled her eyes. “Blood carries oxygen to the brain,” she explained. “But men were given a brain and a penis, and only enough blood to run one at a time. And seeing how the Leftenant here is a newly married man...” She left the rest hanging as Martel snorted a laugh.
