I'm all boy. |
This post is about using your eyes and common sense. We were at one of our Manners classes and a woman there (who had been in the class with us for about four weeks) was admiring Dieter and just trying to make friendly conversation. "So, is Dieter a girl or a boy?" she asked.
My self that listens to the little internal warning voice politely responded: "He's a boy." The naughty voice that wanted to speak up wanted to say something like "Are you serious?"
I was relating this experience to my cousin and said "Isn't the name Dieter a give away as to his gender?" My cousin agreed and offered up this pithy explanation: "Really, you'd have to be stupid and a little bit blind not to know that Dieter is a boy."
