“A man assumes that a womans refusal is just part of a game. Or, at any rate, a lot of men assume that. When a man says no, its no. When a woman says no, its yes, or at least maybe. There is even a joke to that effect. And little by little, women begin to believe in this view of themselves.”

“and the words never said,
And the ominous, ominous dancing ahead.
We sat in the car park till twenty to one
And now Im engaged to Miss Joan Hunter Dunn.”
