Thanks for giving me something...Lovely post, Wendy. Thanks for giving me something to chew on. I'm glad you were able to turn your back on the problem--I'm sure that many women are consumed/defined by the struggle throughout their lives. I wonder if there's also some underlying cynical response: "I've seen people conform, and look at the cost of conformity."<br /><br />I think I've taken an analogous approach to you, from the male angle. So much of what makes me who I am flies in the face of cultural definitions of masculinity: I'm not into team sports, chartreuse is my favorite color, I'm compelled to talk about my feelings and to analyze relationships, I take pride in my domestic skills and I'm comfortable flirting lightly with male friends, etc. And I'm good with that. :)JohnRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01822899155130408891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7298303.post-47475264048963039092010-02-22T06:27:53.072-08:002010-02-22T06:27:53.072-08:00Your hair looks lovely, that is a nice cut!Your hair looks lovely, that is a nice cut!Shayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16378424538186434791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7298303.post-20263508666846877142010-02-21T21:47:23.199-08:002010-02-21T21:47:23.199-08:00Oh no!

Altho...Oh no! This is supposed to be a HAPPY blog!<br /><br />Although when I look at your blog, my hunch is that it's the Bogle Petite Syrah talking. ;)Wendy Wagner;https://www.blogger.com/profile/16341499181581331264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7298303.post-50268804489529159662010-02-21T21:41:28.147-08:002010-02-21T21:41:28.147-08:00Made me cry.Made me cry.Christiehttp://inkhaven.netnoreply@blogger.com
