Just Like a Woman

A friend of mine passed this along on Facebook.  Pop has a good point, but I've learned to be suspicious of men who talk like this, because it seems that the next words out of their mouths are often along the lines of "Now order me down on my knees and call me your bitch."

(I can't look at that photo without remembering this classic feminist shoot from the sixties:


Mick and the boys were there before, if not first!)

As it happens, though, I'm dressed in women's clothes now: Jeans.  T-shirt.  Boxers.  Running shoes.  Those who think slinky gowns, decorative handbags, and high heels when they hear "women's clothes" aren't as liberated from the standard gender stereotypes as they like to think.
