like, if I’m nice (as I would prefer to be), a man might get the wrong impression, but I’m also afraid to be rude or do anything to upset them so I have to be the right kind of nice or polite - it’s a real double-bind, and something I don’t experience with women

    er, I’m not sure quoting another woman is a suitable exception to the rules - maybe in the future please refrain; I appreciate your enthusiasm and desire to contribute, but it’s important that we respect the rules

      Pretty ironic to quote a woman who agrees with him when the subject is women who modify their behavior for men. Who else thinks this “female” is real and everyone clapped at the end?
