Yet another example.

This morning I had a conversation with my female assistant, we’ll call her Hannah, that went something like this:

 Hannah: “Do you know what show I like?”

Me:  ”No.”

Hannah:  ”Dancing with the Stars.”

Me:  ”Ha ha ha ha ha ha.  That’s funny.  Why do you like that show?”

Hannah:  ”I like to watch people dance and Christi Yamaguchi is one of the dancers.”

Me: “…and…”

Hannah:  ”You remember who Christi Yamaguchi is don’t you.”

Me:  ”Of course I remember who she is I was older than six when the Olympics were played.”

The conversation went on for another five minutes or so but you get the picture.  I just finished a doctorate class on Biblical perspectives on gender where we spent most of the time debating whether or not there are actually any differences between men and women. Case and point.
