Pardon me for saying so, but to me this says that you aren't yetsecure enough in what you're doing. There's some failure of--self-acceptance?--I don't know--but some reason why you werefeeling embarrassed. Well, getting over embarrassment is a lot easier said than done,and I'm certainly not going to pretend that I'd have fared anybetter. But that kind of what-the-hell attitude is one that weall need to cultivate. I'm just picking on you because you'rethe one to whom it happened. 2. The notion that bright colors are only for women is sexismpure & simple. But have you noticed the way some women can turnsexism on and off as if with a switch? Most of the time it'sequal rights (and I have NO complaint with that at all!)--but letthem think that they're more likely to win an argument if theytake the sexist line, & **FLIP** goes the switch...& BINGO! we'reback to the 1950s again! 3. What's really staggering is the rudeness of the woman. Whatsewer did she crawl out of, anyway? Subjecting a completestranger to intrusive & gratuitous criticism of something that'snone of her damned business. A real three-headed b*tch fromhell. Tom Parsons
