Just as an aside, has anyone else noticed how if a man reads poetry written by another man, or listens to classical music composed & performed by another man, he's said to be 'in touch with his feminine side'?
very true, davem.
It is also true, and rather sad, that these days women tend to read a lot more, in general, than men. A friend of mine who's a novelist, was saying the other day that he used to get a bit miffed that some of his (male) friends clearly had never read any of his books.
But then he realised that an awful lot of men simply don't read novels at all, not even ones written by other blokes, not even written by their own mates....
