One of the later additions to the blog Lawyers Drugs and Money is "bean," who it turns out -- color this occasional visitor clueless -- a woman. Of course, a check of her profile would have done the trick, but honestly, it isn't the first time a fairly asexual online nickname kept me in the dark. Stereotypes aside, it is not always (often? perhaps, but it is hard to tell, since many names or people are clearly one sex or the other) clear the sex of the people who write online, though there does tend to be more men in various locales. This leads to more men as assholes, but let's not give them too much credit.
As to the less serious aspect of the post, as a male, that is a charm of summer in the city -- we do have a nice eclectic selection of easy on the eyes women. How about no crude comments, but a quick look or two? [No staring -- as with catcalls, this really ruins it for the rest of us. Do you want them to dress more conservatively?!] One nice touch, btw, is the well placed tattoo. The lower back -- women are more likely to have shirts that rise to show back -- is a good spot.
Likewise, a nice little one on the ankle or leg. I still don't know how women manage to walk on those things without killing themselves.
