It's just part of >wanting to be the best I can be. I didn't mean to say that I thought liking clothes or spending a lot of money on them was necessarily indicative of insecurity or vanity. I just meant that that would probably be the one prejudice that I would have about any men that I might meet there. I doubt that anyone who would say that they might have the preconceived notion about the men there being gay would say that they thought that all men who dressed nicely were gay, or even that all the men that they would meet there were gay. I've known some people who dressed very well who weren't insecure or vain. But I'm afraid that I've met a lot more who were, hence my prejudice. As far as being "the best that I can be", I try to do that too, but since my funds are limited (actually, that's not the reason at all since I'm sure this would be the case no matter how much money I had), I spend all of my extra money on books, records, plays and concerts. But no matter, different strokes... cheers - elizabeth g. purtell (Lady Godiva)
