Sinister: Subjective headings

[Alan Singfield]

I do like this subject header idea but having "female masturbation" written

There. Most people don't think its rude. I remember having a polite dinner
conversation with an Irishman and a Pakistani. I was talking about curry to
the Pakistani and he complained that his mother always used to smother their
food with ghee (clarified butter, pronounced the same way). The Irishman
collapsed into fits of laughter - he did have a filthy mind, which somehow
really impressed me.

It *is* very disconcerting to skim through posts and see your name in
lights. Luckily I read the full paragraph and was reassured. I'm going to
start a game of 'shooting-tick' - so ERICA WILL BE SHOT in a more focussed

Pass on the goodwill, people.
