NEVER let it be said that Michael Lewis spares himself from his keen reporting. In his new memoir of fatherhood, “Home Game,” he writes that when he was dropping off his daughter at day care, the teachers giggled at him for no apparent reason. He asked his wife, Tabitha Soren, why they were laughing and she mumbled, “Er, it’s about your penis.” Lewis’ dogged reporting uncovered the grim facts: His toddler daughter, who had a habit of peeking on him in the shower, liked to blurt out to everyone at day care, “Daddy has a small penis!”

    George: Well I just got back from swimming in the pool. And the water was
    cold…
    Jerry: Oh… You mean… shrinkage.
    George: Yes. Significant shrinkage!
    Jerry: So you feel you were short changed.
    George: Yes! I mean, if she thinks that’s me she’s under a complete misapprehension. That was not me, Jerry. That was not me.

    ML did f’up by marrying Tab Soren. DTJB’s accent made my dick snap to attention.

    No wonder he didn’t last more than a few years at Solly.If Gutfreund had only known he wouldn’t have offered him the deviled eggs!

    Toddlers are like parrots. They only say things they’ve heard other people say. So who’s been telling the little tot that her “daddy has a small penis”? Tabitha?

    I’m reminded of an old story about Anna Freud, Sigmund’s daughter.
    Anna wanted to go into the family business, so to speak, so she started reading her father’s book at an early age. One day she asked him, “Daddy, what’s a phallus?”
    He looks around to make sure they’re alone, pulls down his pants, and says: “Zat, dear Anna, ist ein phallus.”
    She replied, “I see. It’s like a penis, only smaller.”

  21. Posted by guest | April 20, 2009 at 9:13 PM

    why does she know it’s a small penis? whose is she comparing it to?

  22. Posted by guest | April 20, 2009 at 9:44 PM

    Small penis. Sounds like he worked at Goldman, not Soli.

    @24- wtf was the point of your comment?

  26. Posted by Finnegan | April 20, 2009 at 10:24 PM

    Somewhere in Child Protective Services:
    “We just call a call from staff at a daycare about some girl a bit too familiar with her father’s small penis. We better send out a social worker.”

    the daughter (who was in day care ie what 2? 3? 4 at most?) was FOR SURE told it was small by the mom.
