Robin Williams: I know, we can’t use the word “dyke.” You can’t even say “lesbian”, it’s “women in comfortable shoes.”

Women can say that men are crazy about anything, any time, but we males are limited to this and this only.

It’s fine by me. The male is supposed to be magnanimous. There were only two other places where a man used to be allowed to question a woman’s sanity: romantic comedies and PMS (and that was clinical). But the former seems to have died off as a genre, and the latter went from being something we never talked about to a subject of humor to a feminist right.

Anyway, heels are a very important issue and we should definitely pass laws about them. (sigh)

What business is it of theirs? The trade union? Just wrong! And yes, I love Thatcher’s style there (and Reagan’s) and I had no idea the new British Prime Minister had such cool taste. Good for her and no one’s business but her own!

In 1986, Reagan commented: “Her male counterpart got the lion’s share of publicity but Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did and did it with high heels on and did it backwards.”

High heels would be more fun to watch.
