If I guy kept saying normal stuff was "random" I would lose it.Guys who talk to women in a different voice to when they talk to men.

My husband kept saying he speaks differently when women show up and I only witnessed it recently when I heard him and came in to see who it was as I didn't recognise the voice! Instantly became more...nasal and "educated" sounding. But that's waaay down the list of reasons I would never date someone like him anyway :pac: I mean, you should SEE his shoelaces. Tight doesn't begin to describe... :P

The rest of us get his "management voice". The non-management voice is a couple of octaves higher, and comes with added sarcasm. I didn't notice it until a colleague pointed it out, and after that we were able to track those who will rise within the company and those who won't. Now I can't unhear it.

People who treat retail/customer service staff badly. It also tells me everything I need to know about the person, that behind all their charm they're quite horrible people. Obesity - I don't mind a few extra pounds but I'm turned off totally by someone who is quite obese. People with D4/West Brit and fake accents, I love a good genuine Irish accent.

But would you apply that as a rule without exception? At this risk of an intervention by the kind people of After Hours, I admit to wearing white socks in two situations; 1. In the gym. I have short white running socks (breathable etc) so I don't wreck my feet when I'm running and sweating. 2. Hot days (the few we get!). If I'm wearing shorts and runners, I think black/brown/green/whatever office-type socks would look ridiculous. So I wear the same type of gym socks. Is there a less socially stigmatising type of sock a person could wear with runners?
