With all the changes in my life recently, a new dose of reality is setting it. I've always have been very careful of my male self creeping into my female life. Now the opposite is beginning to occur. I've passed along the times I've been referred to as "mam" or "she" when I'm not dressed as one. I don't think I have any qualities that would cause that to happen except my personality. I was subconsciously projecting girl is my best guess. You know the many times a clerk will not even look at you until the very end of the transaction. I will get the "she" comment until she looks up. Flattering I guess! One of the other female traits that is showing up in my male life is the compliment syndrome. Obviously, women are much more in tune with with nuances of a look. Hair, accessories and clothes are all noticed. Guys of course are into the big picture. "You look nice" is more male than "Wow, I love those earrings". Wi
