When they came to a picture of a crab, she said, "It's a female." The tester immediately came to the conclusion my mother had some kind of sexuality issue. Umm...no. She explained she loves hardshell crabs and females have more meat in them. Sometimes a one sentence answer can't convey what someone really thinks.
