trading spouses: why not the dad?

my roomie and i have deep conversations on the couch while we watch tv.

one time, we wondered where kissing came from. i said, the search for food. and, lo, months later on discovery channel, we learned that was probably true. see? our conversations are deep.

anyway, while watching House and catching an ad for fox-tv's Wife Swap, my roomie asked, 'why don't they ever switch dads? why is it always the mom?'

that's a good question, roomie.
why not the dad?

I suggest switching stupid wife swap for Arrested Development! Do you watch that show? I hate TV. And you're right.

well, uh..if a wife is swapped out, doesn't that result automatically in a husband being swapped as well? I mean, if the wife is swapped to some guy not doin his own wife, isn't he thereby swapped?

A-non

but he's not swapped geographically. he gets to sleep in his bed, have his home around him, his children. nothing changes for him except his, of course, wife.
