Not entirely to do with politics but has anyone seen the All Soul's entrance exam from 2008 in the Guardian today? Half the questions sound like Mumsnet threads. I especially like 'Is it an extremely unnatural condition for a male and female to live continuously together?' and 'Does the moral character of an orgy change when the participants wear Nazi uniforms?'

There are some fabulous questions on that list.

The answer to 'Is it an extremely unnatural condition for a male and female to live continuously together?' is 'Yes', for most All souls fellows. That is why they take up residence in a place where it is considered quite acceptable for a man to refuse to 'go through' to dessert if a 'lady' will be at the table there.

most many

The gents public toilet at All Souls just says 'Fellows'. I always imagine that there is a ladies toilet somewhere there that just says 'Secretaries'.

Blimey, I had no idea they were quite so medieval. Bet they'd be baffled by the Why Hug a Hoodie question. They probably think a hoodie is some kind of capuchin monk.
