Ladies are naturally self-centred. It is related to their biological role as creators of the human race in which men play but an insignificant part being, as Ms Greer said, like carrots: cheap and plentiful and easily cooked, as I know to my cost.
It is laughable that men professing to be Darwinians should not find it an endearing quality but for them to mock it is pitiful and is a clear demonstration of their male chauvinist piggery in that they must assume that ladies should be like men, obviously thinking themselves superior beings and thus worthy of emulation even when they talk about themselves un-necessarily.
When I hear men use the "I" word a lot and talk about themselves overmuch I generally shift myself down the bar a bit but when ladies do it I move a little closer and try to tease out the secret springs of their actions. Leading her on a bit is quite permissable. Narcissism in ladies is perfectly natural given the biological facts. In men it is merely tiresome. And dangerous as it gives away too much to a crafty listener.
She does hold all the aces.
