1. Stereotypes
2. Being patronized (and we can always tell, can�t we?)
3. Coffee or beer (I�ve tried them both � I just don�t like them).
4. To discuss a viewpoint with a closed-minded or very stubborn person.
5. Meanness. Rudeness. Abuse. Superiority. Arrogance.
FOUR ways to turn me off
1. Treat me as something �less� because I am a woman � pay me less, assume you know my likes or dislikes, treat me as if I am not as smart, not as analytical, not as technically oriented as a man. All of these have happened to me, and I don�t wish to have them repeated.
2. Have an unforgiving nature.
3. Try to be a �mother� or �father� to my children. They already have one of each of those; more are not necessary at this time.
4. Tailgate. Park in a handicapped space. Honk to be mean. Do that thing that 18-wheelers do when a lane is going away to block the lanes so that no one can pass.
THREE Things I do everyday
1. Kiss my husband; hug my children
2. Walk the dog.
3. Check my email.
TWO things that make me happy
1. Packages in the mail
2. �No homework, Mom!�
ONE thing on my mind right now
1. My �list� of things that must get done today.
