I use a box fan to help dry the dishes in the dishwasher. Recently I mistakenly pointed the fan away from the dishes instead of toward them. This appears to be faster and more effective than my normal method. Why?

Why is sucking better than blowing?

Ummm... not a girl, but I suspect it's easier to suck things out of it than blow into it...

lucky for you, you don't need to be a girl to find out

Actually, I would like to know what being a woman would be like. I suspect the opposite sex would also like to know what it would be like to be a man.

It's just human curiosity I guess.

Why would that matter? I'm 40, it's not like I've got raging hormones and change opinions every month or so.
