There are those of us who don't care for sports <i>or</i> shopping, and who are decidedly not gay. Maybe not many, but there are some of us. The smart women snatch us up quickly. 11638@blogcritics.org Mon, 23 Jun 2003 11:37:22 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/06/23/013532.php#comment-11628 Thanks Lyz, the was an interesting article. I'm pleased to see straight men being less concerned with hard behavioral rules, but it only works under rather rarified conditions, like living in Manhattan. 11628@blogcritics.org Mon, 23 Jun 2003 09:53:48 EDT
