You made me look up to see if she changed class from her childhood to her adulthood. I don't know what it's called, but as someone who has jumped at least one class, I continually feel like I'm passing. Because nobody taught me How To Dress, sometimes I get it wrong. I wondered if MN was having that same sort of thing.

Nope. However perhaps there's a similar experience when one jumps from WASP to Jew?

Also: 60-something women academics Aren't Allowed to be sexual. MN is blazing a new trail. She's bound to fuck it up here and there. I say more power to her, as I aspire to the same sort of thing - confident sexuality + academic brilliance, regardless of age. If she can figure it out before I get there, I'll owe her.
