Would that be using it to our advantage by pandering to male fantasies?

Seriously, I don't want to take over Kitty Kat's introduction thread, but seriously? She's trying to find a style and that's your advice? Is there any field women can compete in where our success doesn't get tied into being eye candy?

I'm going to go start a new thread about this, get it discussed properly and in context, rather than leaping on it where it happens to come up.

A lot of people went on about how he was acting too grown up for his age, but I pointed out that he'll be well practised for it when he's older.

I went to a Magic Circle Summer of Sorcery event in London and he went along too, performed a trick for a few of the higher ranking members who were milling around at the end after the show. It was a card to wallet and the wallet itself just screamed "I am a prop" simply because it was the type of wallet no one his age would have and it contained things no one his age would have.
Additionally his professional magician's jacket didn't go so well with the blue T-shirt and jeans.
However, whilst we may see this as him acting all grown up, in 10 years or so he'll actually be an adult and unlike most of the rest of us, he'll have had a lot of practice.
