Someone beat us to a lawsuit....

Alright, boys and girls, I'm gonna tell you a story. Try to keep up.
The place is India. In India, there is a hermaphrodite. Said hermaphrodite falls in love with a female relative. Said female relative expresses similar feelings for said hermaphrodite. Said hermaphrodite undergoes correctional surgery to turn him-and-her self into simply himself. Newly male individual (formerly said hermaphrodite) approaches aforementioned female relative and says that he is ready to get married. Aforementioned female relative informs former hermaphrodite that she is already engaged to another man.
Is everybody with me?
This works on so many levels I hardly know where to begin.
First, the former hermaphrodite has sued his former lover for refusing to marry him. According to him, she had promised to marry him after the surgery, which he had to borrow money to pay for.
To be perfectly honest, I'm just shocked that somewhere, someone sued somebody else for something that, as far as I know, has never been contested in a court of law in the United States. Does everyone here realize how amazing this is? The United States is a nation that sees fit to sue because coffee is hot. We sue because we're fat. Because ice is slippery. Because cliffs are high. Someone beat us to a lawsuit. Global village, indeed. This may be our next big export. This will survive the cockroaches and leave its indelible mark as the United State's contribution to the world.
So there you have it, chalk up one more for American expansion.
We're exporting stupid lawsuits.
