<ggg> Because I'm a paranoid loon, I'll assume you're directing that towards my last comment to you about the Clinton Affair.

I hope it's not impolite to observe that your opinion echoes those of several female SI members and a particular girlfriend in Santa Cruz. I should mention my detailed study of Estrogenics. It's a language subset in the same way that Ebonics is a subset. Fully translated, you get:

Me: Wow, Bill Clinton really messed up with this 'Monica' thing.
Her: I don't see what the fuss is about. He can still lead the nation.
Me: Oh&#151well, I'll start &#145working it&#146 tomorrow.
Her: Don't even think about it, mister!
Me: ??? <insert puzzled look>
Her: Don't even give me taht puzzled look. He's a public figure&#151you're my boyfriend/husband/male partner. It's different.
Me: Oh, okay.<slump in humility>

Estrogenics: what she says&#151and what it really means.
