I'm a 5'7 woman. Yes, I've been rejected a couple times because I'm on the taller side.

You're right, I misread that. So then yes, lesbian is the term they'd use, signifying female.

Referring to you as a lesbian would play into the idea that you're a woman, so they'd say you're straight.

It's banned in the US because we're sue-crazy. Companies can't rely on the common sense of their customers here. Even if the egg comes with a blinking neon sign that says there's a non edible toy inside, someone would sue (and win!) claiming that it's not enough and the toy shouldn't be there in the first place.

Robin Williams was my first big celebrity cry.

Does it not bother you that you don't catch what things look like as you read? If you're skipping description, of say, a lake, do you just... Assume it looks like a lake you've seen in the past? What if the description plays heavy into the plot, like the water is, idk, yellow and boiling. That doesn't matter to you?

I taught children's martial arts for a long time, and the best way to teach the younger ones is to face them and do the thing on the opposite side. I had to, for many years say stuff like: "step out with your RIGHT foot" while simultaneously stepping with my left,

Let me tell you, the number of wrong turns I take when someone is giving directions is so embarrassing. I have to really concentrate and like... feel which hand is my right hand.

Oh definitely. Halfway through an argument at work with a new engineer (I'm a designer) about how revision clouding is always shortened to "rev" and how to spell that abbreviation correctly in the past tense.

Revved or reved or rec'd

I did admit when I realized I was wrong

I'm a 40 year old woman with very thick dark brown hair with very little gray, pale skin, and a round face with pronounced cheekbones and a dimple chin. My nose is rounded at the end, My eyes are hazel and large, my lips not small or big, I've never had Botox or fillers, but my skin is taken fairly good care of. My lips are downturned, so my smile is straight, I'm taller than average, and I have an hourglass shape.

My mom does this every time she parks, even in our driveway. She's always said it's so if her car stalls, it's easier to get it jumped or towed out of the spot.
