Male. Robustly male. I’ve got maleness oozing from my pores. Maleness springing from every finger and toe. Maleness sliding off the hems of my little black cocktail dress.

Male, I think.

Oh damn, I fail again? Sheesh.

I’m whatever you want me to be, baby. 😃

Um, just kidding. Male, definitely male. And I’ll kick the crap out of anybody who says different. _flexes muscles heroically, then builds a sports car out of spare parts, belches, watches football and downs a six pack of beer_

Male. Yup, male. And that’s my final answer.

Oh, wow! A pal! 😃  
Just kidding. I think I will take the convertible, if you don’t mind. Will you be inside? If so, then make sure that you are presentable, with your zipper up, thank you very much. Dinner would be great, but drinks would be a no-no as I am only 20(until October). And the French perfume is nice, as long as it doesn’t mean that I stink.
