Of course your memory sucks, ma'am aerocontrols Send a noteboard - 04/10/2017 07:08:56 PM

if there's one thing I know about wimmins, it's that they can't remember anything. Actually, I think the stereotype runs the other way: Women forgive, but never forget, while men forget, but never forgive.

But there is no way I've not done that sort of thing. We're all raised certain ways, and it's hard to remember to think for yourself all. The. Damn. Time. It's tiring.

I can remember several instances where it happened to me, because I'm a woman in a man's world - the easiest description is skilled landscaping.


It can be tiring to try to be aware of how everyone around you might react, and I'm worried about it when interacting with people, particularly people I don't know well. I'm pretty introverted, maybe primarily because casual gatherings of my peers are exhausting.

Hollywood has the best moral compass, because it has compassion.
