dreamer_easyWith our recent discussion of "femininity" in mind, two snippets:
Femininity back in fashion. Specifically, "Prada has long been the house that lets women be women rather than squeezing them into impossibly tight trousers and mini skirts that only skinny teenagers should wear." (However, there can't be one size 14 in the parade of zombies illustrating the item.)
From Fred Pohl's story Generations in the September 2005 Asimov's:
We went there in her car because it was a Beamer convertible and a lot more comfortable than my old Corolla, but she politely asked me to do the driving and didn't criticize when I did.
This puzzled me - I assume she had him drive because that's the man's job on a date.
