"Mum always thinks I'm being a sexist, so I try to be careful -- not only with her, but with everyone. It seems to make a difference to some girls. If you say something that isn't sexist to the right sort of girl, she likes you more. Say one of your mates is going on about how girls are stupid, and you say "Not all girls are stupid," then it can make you look good. There have to be girls listening, though, obviously. Otherwise it's a waste of time."
-Nick Hornby, Slam, p.17
