So good, Susan. And in with a new collective noun too! After I read about the protein drink/coffee spiking, I came across a news article from 2019 that blew my mind--about a French civil servant who had been found guilty of putting a diuretic in the drinks of over 200 women that he was INTERVIEWING. He would give them the altered drink, and then suggest they take the interview outside, where they had no access to a toilet. He wanted to watch them in distress. He kept logs. None of it is surprising anymore and that, I think is what will really set 5th wave Feminism apart. The blinkers and the blinders and the willingness to extend that disbelief are gone. I can see clearly now, the gaslighting rain is gone.
Actually some guys do wear skirts, not necessarily cross-dressing (what a telling phrase) The child of an acquaintance ( apparenly male) wore heels at graduation with the robe. A male dancer on facebook often dances en pointe bare chested with a tutu. There is hope.
And there is always the kilt. And every Halloween at high school, there was a surprising number of boys dressed in skirts, nurse's uniforms, and all manner of cross-dressing. I agree with you about the oddness of that term. Might be time for a little etymology dive.
beautifully said. thank you
There is a season, turn, turn, turn ... How about now?
I’m down for now, Roy. 10k years is long enough.

You would murder a pair of pumps. Thanks, always, for everything.
