Deferential? That has something to do with rudeness and the vas deferens, right?
It wasn't rude Deb, it was a platitude like "your highness".
I just didn't want her to think I was saying she does drugs...
You know perfectly well that, given the nature of socialization and the de rigeurness of thinness as a feminine ideal, that your tinyness, or your weeness, or your smallness, would have been the only acceptable honorifics, were size to be referred to...
Of course, had it been a male, and were to keep to our deferens theme, your enormity or your hugeness would have been acceptable.
Ahh, I forgot all about that.
Ok, got it. Mins like big and wimmins like small. Even I can handle that.
Thanks Deb, I don't know what I'd do without your wee smallish brain.
Ok, it didn't work. I told another gal that she has the smallest bosom I had ever seen, I was expecting swooning but got a dirty look.
Wimmins is weird.
Yes, your drag along the floorness...
Or - ought that to be, given the size of your brain, your Hydrocepalusness?
That's positively insulting Deb, my knuckles do not drag.
I have another bit of confusion, I tried to laud a femfolk type as "manly" and speculated at what must be a mass of matted manly chest hair she has.
Again, dirty looks. There's really no pleasing wimmin.
I think what makes them happy is to be mad at mins.
I spoke not of your knuckles, but let us pass on...
Why did you think a woman would wish to be called manly?
I don't know.. it sounds like a compliment. In the throes of.. um excercise a wimmin once called me a manly beast in what I could only describe as a very positive comment.
Tell ya what, let me run one of these by you.
A wimmin did something intelligent here at work (serious, no lie) and I am of a mind to walk over to pay her a compliment.
What I have in mind is to give her a light tap on the butt and say "Way to go team player! You are twice the man I am!"
What do you think?
I shall not dignify that one with the compliment of thought...
Sure you don't want to mull that decision over a few times?
Wimmins are really testy.
I could mull it for a thousand years, and add cinnamon to it, and nutmeg, and god knows what, and it would still be what it is.
A good idea? A positively manly idea?
Alas, poor man, must I spell it out for you?
(odd, his logic fails him, he conflates "manly" with "good".....must be the testosterone, poor things...)
Of course "manly" means good!
As in, that was a very kind, manly gesture there fella.
He has a good manly heart.
She has a nice manly kick.
You have spelt "w h a t" correctly, Craven - now if we could just work on a few other words....
Oh - spell out my judgment of your idea?
here you go - I t is a r e a l l y b a d o n e.
Does a manly heart mean a weak one, what with all the heart attacks minfolk get?
