The absurdity of Madonna
( Greetings from Norway )

I was watching TV with my nephew, ten years old.
Watching an intro to some norwegian quizz, which had a clip with Madonna, he leans over and whispers in my ear; "Thats one I find attractive".

What do you say? "I could have been your father. And she could have been my mother".

The absurdity of it...

4. Re : "Huh?"
Well, I see what you mean by just saying "Huh?".

One moment I´m saying "Huh?" myself.
And the next moment I´m laughing out loud with the absurdity of it.

7. Cultural difference?
Maybe there´s a cultural difference U.S. / Norway(?)
Making a Norwegian see the absurdity of it?

2. She's aged well, I guess...
But Madonna is pretty absurd in a lot of ways.

8. It´s not
It´s not that I don´t like her or don´t respect her, it´s more the absurdity of the situation.

9. Guess I missed what's absurd about it....
... the age thing?

If that's it, I still don't see the absurdity... Unless I'm equally absurd for being hot n bothered about Raquel Welch when I was about the same age as the nephew...

Best wishes to all involved I guess - lol
