CONVERSATION 1

F: Luke! Tomorrow’s your first day in your new job. You’re not

going to wear that earring, are you?

M: I was going to. Why not?

F: Well, if I were you, I wouldn’t wear it. It may not be appropriate

in the office.

M: That’s crazy. What’s wrong with an earring, Beth?

F: Nothing. But lots of people are old-fashioned, and they don’t

think men should wear earrings . . . at least at the office.

M: You’re only twenty-eight and you sound like my grandmother.

This is the twenty-first century. In any case, I need to be who I

am. I’m an individualist.

CONVERSATION 2

F1: Celia, what a great tattoo! When did you get it?

F2: Just last week. But my husband thinks it’s awful.

F1: Doesn’t he have one, too?

F2: Yes. But he says it’s not the same thing.

F1: You mean he thinks it’s OK for a man but not for a woman?

F2: You got it.

F1: What a double standard!

CONVERSATION 3

M1: Mark, I’m really unhappy. My daughter wants to go to law

school.

M2: That’s great! What’s the problem?

M1: Well, I was hoping she’d marry a lawyer, not be one!

M2: Why’s that?

M1: Well, it’s just that I think men should be lawyers and women

should stay home and have children.

M2: That’s a little sexist, if you ask me!
