Disappeared about the same time gentlemen (in the original sense of petty nobility) did.

Method of Madness:
Although you'd think she'd have learned her lesson from that.

Round about the same time as people stopped worrying about it being unladylike. 

I know what it's like to be harassed by women about being awkward and inexperienced around women.  That's nothing at all like what Dale is going through with Faye and Dora.  There's an underlying thread of support there at Coffee of Doom.  They aren't holding his status over him for power or mean spirited kicks.  They're being frank and honest.  Hell, it's probably a relief for him to get that out in the open in a caring and understanding environment. 

In some job environments talking about that stuff would be inappropriate.  You don't generally get into those positions when you cheerfully admit your sudden resignation from your last job included sparklers. 

GarandMarine:
I swear we just talked about "over share" culture upthread.

Anyone who wants to do the WCDT this week, go for it.
