dreamer_easyLloyd sent me a clipping of a thought-provoking op-ed: What Does 'Boys Will Be Boys' Really Mean?
Further to Mary's story about being pressured to have breast reduction surgery: according to the SMH, "Australian women's breasts are getting bigger, a new study has found."

I had to recognize that as well -- that I just didn't have a lot of experience points in such matters, so I had to be careful how I acted. But it also means if I do say or do something insensitive, I know it's not because I'm fundamentally a bastard -- it's because half my IQ points were being bypassed by an abruptly diverted flow of blood. And that always made it a hell of a lot easier for me to apologize if I did the wrong thing, because my pride (such as it was) wasn't so much at stake.
(BTW, completely different note -- how do you get your posts to default to purple?)
