Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What is up with this double posting issue I've been having lately?

I shall take this opportunity to say that I would like someone to deliver my six-person hot tub right now, please. And a masseur.

Oh, fer cryin' out loud...

So, I got a response to my post on the writers' list. Here's part of it:

And, unfortunately, the language you are not ashamed of, is part of a larger problem; claiming you "adore" something, or are "fascinated" by some aspect of history, for example, are very "feminine" uses of language. I have learned to avoid them, as they tend to sound gushy to me.

Is it too girly of me to roll my eyes forever? I mean, first I'm silly for enjoying stories about girls doing traditionally male activities, and then I'm diminishing myself by using traditionally feminine language? WTF?

Would it be less girly if you tell her to go fuck herself?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Something tells me she has a problem with her own femininity, (as someone who sometimes suffers from this, I think I can spot 'em). Or that's actually a guy.

I have never read a fictional account of a woman masquerading as a man to serve in the armed forces but I recall a fascinating story about a civil war recreationist who was barred when they discovered she was female. It was the first time I'd heard of the practice and I really enjoyed researching it. One might say I adored the process.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's really weird, Susan. Those examples don't seem feminine to me, though I must admit that I am not sensitive to that sort of thing. Or, to quote the earworm Aimee and Vortex have so generously given me, "I don't think so"
