I agree with Navane's post. Depending on the man's age, to him that may have just been what he was brought up to view as the norm. A good friend of mine was in a car accident a year ago and thank G-D she's fine now, she had about 6 surgeries so far and needed to go to the hospital for doctor's appointments a lot. One time I took her to the hospital, and while I was in the waiting room, I was knitting a scarf for a friend. An elderly man (my guess is in his 70's or 80's) came up to me as he was leaving the doctor's office and told me how nice it is to see young women doing something with their lives for a change and how seeing me knit gives him hope for the rest of us. (I kid you not.) Well seeing as he seemed rather elderly and apart from being deranged, a rather nice old man, I decided to bite my tongue and not tell him exactly what I thought of him.
