十万个为什么

A young colleague was asking me about the types of questions fu asks and how I'll answer him cos it can be so endless. I told her sometimes I will just tell him as a matter of factly from an adult's perspective and often when I do that, he'll be "satisfied" (or he has given up).

This morning came an example of his 十万个为什么 questions:

As i was epilating my leg hair..
Fu: mummy wat r u doing?
Me: i'm epilating my leg hair
Fu: why?
Me: cos it's so ugly..
Fu: why? Why is it ugly?
Me: cos that's how shallow people perceive women's leg hair, and I'm one of the shallow people.
Fu: ohh... (walks away)
