Um, yes, and I'd like to know why he thinks women "want to feel
sexy to themselves." Those things women do to improve their

made to excite envy in other women than desire in men (who, after
all, would be well-pleased if the women went around stark naked).

Too true; and I think this is often true of men as well,
since much of what they do/say/wear seems to be more
about impressing other *men* than impressing women,

larger it is, the more it will impress other men and be painful
to women.
