You seem quite proud of yourself (and quick to temper),
Ok, I know now that I was wrong, cause I have SEEN it. I did not wish to
offend (no need to get riled), just wished to make a statement from opinion
and my own experience. I don't care what methods are used, I just could not
say for certain that it was a woman without a larger pic, or the product.
Sometimes if it quacks like a duck, and walks like a duck, it might be a
parrot. Surely our own opinions should not be so solid...and I was wrong.
Sorry if I offended you, no need to throw down the gauntlet.
