Charm school, Luc? From roaming around SI,

...am surprised to see you reference the term in more than one respect.

Geez, this dates you. <g> Are you an old guy?

Corporations sent the women to 'charm school' back in the Stone Age. Those that slept with their immediate supervisors and higher-ups to 'earn the privilege.'

I speak anecdotally from my father's observations as a classic 50s lifetime career corporate man at a major oil company.

I was not aware that attending 'charm school' was necessary to post on SI ... and from looking around, seems it might be a better idea to send the 'men in control' to such a place, rather than the women.

What do you think?

<g>
