Now before you all start up a heated debate on the pros and cons of men on the planet (I'm looking at you Ms Dagger and Mr Carpark), I'm writing a script and need to have a list of five or six really esoteric things which wouldn't exist if men weren't around.
I could write them myself ( 
) but thought I'd much rather let you lot do the hard work.
So I'm not really looking for boring, usual, predictable answers such as "war", "rape", "famine", "injustice" and "indoor bowls". More for the little things that without men around would never have been invented, or ideas that never would have survived, e.g. the offside rule, gloves designed especially for driving, B&Q, Allen keys, gas barbecues, pedometers or 'The Darkness'.
All suggestions gratefully received. (If you want to list 'Things That Wouldn't Exist Without Women' then on your own poor heads be it.)
Thanks.
