Just what the hell is it with women and mobile phones? The latter is a simple tool which enables us blokes to have a simple and brief conversation establishing a) where to meet or b) a yes or no decision. Simple. Dial or answer. Speak. End call. Put phone in pocket.

Meanwhile, the female of our species appears to sieze every opportunity to spend countless hours engaged in the most inane drivel shouting into this device. Be it the checkout queue at the local supermarket or a crowded bus, they insist on calling some likewise nincompoop to indulge in broadcasting meaningless natter to all and sundry about boyfriends/work/wrong time of month and whatever useless nonsense you can imagine. It is, quite simply unsocial beheaviour.

Given therefore, the logistical problems of issuing ASBO's to every mobile-carrying woman, would it not be much more simpler to ban women from the possession of mobile phones, thus increasing the quality of life for all?
