You know you are in the SCA when you read a ng and you assume that the
person discussing in detail why a new dress pattern is or is not period is
a woman.  And then you read the name and are surprised to learn the poster
is a man. Then you think to yourself  "But this is the SCA just why should
that surprise me?"  And then you smile.

I fondly recall sitting in a pub after fight practice one afternoon and
listening in on the conversations. Two separate discussions popped out.
Five young pretty women chatting about sheild wall tactics, the correct
use of polearms in a collapsing wall and the benefits of leather versus
plastic in armour construction. The other table had two very large, well
muscled men, the brutish althetic type, discussing the finer points of 
Bayeux Tapestry stitch and how to design Italian cutwork linens.

Feels rather warm in my heart. <sigh>

	Welcome to the SCA, where men can have boot fetishes and women can
have knife fetishes!
