Closeted Tammys

In some circles of Mandy friends, there is a closeted Tammy. This Tammy usually spends some self-hating time trying to fit in and be a Mandy by eating Dove chocolate at work and caring what her son has to say. Eventually this Tammy will come to terms with herself and come out to her friends through an email forward that is unconventionally inappropriate, such as:

Several years ago, Great Britain funded a study to determine why the head of a man's penis is larger than the shaft. The study took two years and cost over $180,000. The results concluded that the reason the head of a man's penis is larger than the shaft is to provide the man with more pleasure during sex. After the results were published, the French declared that the British were wrong and decided to conduct their own study of the same subject. After three years of research and a cost in excess of $250,000, they concluded that the head of a man's penis is larger than the shaft to provide the woman with more sexual pleasure. When the results of the French study were released, Newfoundland decided to conduct its own study. So, after nearly three weeks of intensive research and a cost of around $75, the Newfie's study was complete. They came to the conclusion that the reason the head of a man's penis is larger than the shaft is to prevent his hand from flying off and hitting him in the forehead.

To Tammy’s surprise, her Mandy friends will find her mild lack of email forward boundaries exotic and appealing and they will remain friends. It is the Tammy equivalent of what happened to Ellen Degeneres with her sexuality, which is interesting because the closeted Tammy is the only one who doesn't watch the Ellen show.
