"Soooo much easier," Kathy agreed, grateful to be back to a topic that wouldn't make her blush--even if his comment about breasts had her looking down at hers with an unconscious moue of displeasure. It was tough when your little sister wore a larger bra, okay? "I still have yet to be able to put on mascara without poking myself in the eye and makeup only gets more complicated from there."
Blush? Eyeshadow? Swoopy eyeliner? HOW DID THEY WORK?!
"It makes sense, though, when you think about it," Kathy said. "In the cultural unconscious, we believe that guys are the ones that choose. So it's up to women to be ornamental, to better our odds of being chosen, where guys only have to worry about it inasmuch as they might have competition with another guy for the most attractive female." She pointed at him. "Actor." And then at herself. "Object."
