Of course, my father did at length come home to stay, and, among other things, he taught me the Standard Method for Those with Penises.
Seemed pretty odd at the time, but I learned it more easily than I did tying my shoes (don't ask 
). It still isn't entirely second nature for me, but it isn't exactly brain surgery, either, and it does come in handy under a fair number of circumstances.Usually how much I make a conscious effort not to stand depends upon how dressed I am, except in the case where I'm wearing hosiery. If I'm wearing pantyhose or tights, I have strong inclination to stand up--I suppose I'm just worried about wear and tear on the garments (if I recall correctly, I've got some Scottish ancestry
).I suppose I'd be more strict about sitting down, but then I read that interesting stuff at restrooms.org. It's nice to know that women can also stand, if they care to do so.
Yours,
Celia
