The Shallow End

I'm A Lady!

Heh. This is just funny. People who know me know that I am not exactly "lady" material. Girl? Yes. Tomboy? Definitely. Lady? Not exactly.

But apparently, here are some of the things that qualify me as a lady:

I never ask if I look fat (I already know the answer).
I never use call waiting (I don't even have this feature on my phone).
I never talk on the phone in a restaurant or the movies (or much of anyplace else for that matter...wait, I must correct that statement...I did answer the phone in a fast food restaurant once, but that was because it was Lyn(don) calling...and then I talked with my mouth full).
I dress modestly, never "sexy," and if in doubt, I dress up rather than down (this is just being conservative).
I don't flirt with men I'm not interested in (really, who would do this? I mean, if you're not interested. That's just stupid.)
I don't tell racist or sexist jokes (in fact, I don't tell jokes at all because I can never remember the punch lines).
And I don't gossip.

And here's further proof:

You Are 72% Lady

Overall, you are a refined lady with excellent manners. But you also know when to relax and not get too serious about etiquette

But I like this quote:

"Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren't."
[Margaret Thatcher]

I think I've said enough. ;-)
