“Now, remember, Forsyth. You were voted the best man for the job.”
“It’s an honor, sir. Unusual, but quite an honor to be chosen for the first interplanetary blind date.”
“Yes, the women of Earth picked you as the best overall…ah, here she comes. Remember, you’re the hope of an entire planet.”
“But, sir! She’s….”
“Other planets, other standards, Forsyth: that huge belly is considered quite sexy on her home world.”
“It’s not her stomach, sir. Her legs….”
“You said on the questionnaire you liked hairy legs, Forsyth.”
“Sir, she has eight of them!”
“We had no guarantee they’d send a bipedal ambassador.”
“No, sir. But…. Don’t some species bite the head off the male after mating?”
“The women voted you number fourteen in Sexually Attractive, Forsyth. But number one in Dispensable. Now, brace yourself. Looks like she’s interested.”
