So M. and I, the first two females to join our department, went out for lunch. We were joined by one of our younger male colleagues, R. The following conversation ensued:
Talking about a new supervisor (who seems oblivious to the fact that his assistants seem to fancy him)
R.: Do you think he can deliver?
Me: He seems to be very capable. And he's got to be good at his work because he's clueless about women.
M.: Yes, men who have no idea about women are very good at what they do. He's had the good fortune to meet his soul-mate early on in life and get married because, otherwise, he'd be floundering now.
R.: Wow, when men talk, it's very factual. When women talk, they do it with so much more flair.
