“Long before I am near enough to talk to you on the street, in a meeting or at a party, you announce your
sex, age, and class to me through what you are wearing — and very possibly give me important information
(or misinformation) as to your occupation, origin, personality, opinions, tastes, sexual desires, and current
mood. By the time we meet and converse we have already spoken to each other in an older and more
universal tongue.”
