Question on Last 3rd of the Bowl

[Marie]

I thought there'd be more women on this forum, too. I guess the pipe still has the image of an old boys' club, being more charming than sexy. Something we associate more with oilskins and tweed rather than t-shirts and jeans. When women adopt men's fashion, it's usually from younger men's fashion. Damned shame, because a woman's femininity can really be accentuated by the contrast. A young woman can often pull off the pipe look a lot better than a young man. On him, the pipe may look like an attempt to appear more mature than he is. On her, it makes her look interesting. That's my take, at any rate. Happily for me, I have the years and the facial hair to pull off the look, and without looking the least bit pretentious.

I agree, and enjoy the contrast as well from the feminine standpoint. It saddens me that society has conditioned the younger generations away from great craftsmanship as well. I'm a gen x-er so I still a good amount of the DIY.

Well, I suspect that's not actually you in your avatar, either. And it may shock you to learn that's not me in mine, either.

Hey, I'm an Asian. I thought we all look like my avatar to none Asians.

Must have been the knife your avatar was holding.

That was a dead give-away, yes. That blade does not conform to any typology that I'm aware of. Doesn't even look sharp. On closer inspection it turns out that this is a Lego figure.

Do you get as much dottle in a Falcon?
