<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace; margin-left: 40px; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">dear Ben, </span></p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace; margin-left: 40px;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);">but why don't you
want to tell that little, perhaps sad, perhaps amusing story about 'Little
Mother'? It could be exactly the right stuff for us to get rid off this
damned November-depressions!</span></span></p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Hello all,</span></p>
<p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Apparently some
culture(s) use(d) mother as a synonym for lady or woman in an indeering
fassion. Due to some wildly weird-arse thing, I used to use the word mother in
every sentence for about three years of my prepubescence slash adolescence.
American women r'r'r'r'r'r'r'really! hate to be called mothers unless they are
actually mothers of children. In this apparent meaning, she would be a mother
regardless of her having given birth or not, as they had separate words for the
childbearing woman and this other meaning. Please tell me if I was (in some
way) dreaming or not.</span></p>
