How small? I'm 5'3" and not very scary at all. Sometimes I even feel like Rodney Dangerfield. Like I get no respect.

I love mushrooms, even raw dipped in ranch dressing, fried in butter is my fav. @vehve Have you tried them huge portabellas on the grill? I like to do a short marinade on the huge big ones and grill them whole over a smokey wood fire,mmm good, just like steak.

I'm about that size too... Even smaller women... Like my good friend who is 4'11"...
Gawd forbid my sons date her daughters I'm far more terrified of her than I am of her 6'5" 200 some pounds husband...

Hello

I find that small women are exceptionally scary

I am not a small woman.... I was about 5'8". And When I was a country and western dancer I was about 200 lbs. I was a clogger, or flat footer. Yet I could do a bell kick... Thats where you jump off the floor and kick your heels to gether. I was always intimidated by women prettier and more "put together" fashion wise. I tended to slouch....

One day I was chatting with one of my Clogging acquaintences. She was really pretty and put together and had lots of friends herself. I was in my usual submissive posture and relized at that moment I was feeling very inferior. I thought hmmm.... and did an experiment. I raised up and squared my shoulders and looked her in the eye... It was amazing... I was stunned.... She took a step backward. I hadnt changed the conversation or my facial expression except to meet her eye... She soon found someone else to talk to.

We all have power... Big Small In-between. We all have formidable-ness. Or the ability to be Formidible.... without saying a word. Just by using body language in a conscious sense.

I heard an Actress in an interview once.... asked if she had problems with autograph hounds.... She said funny thing when I am out and about no one bothers me. When asked why she pulled her hand across her face and when it had passed her face had a stone cold unemotional look... She said she had no idea she did this but this was the face she had when she went shopping. She only was aware of it when she was looking in a department store window.

Ever take a look at your public face....? its a very interesting exercise. Mine is very scary...

Yet I had a boyfriend nick name me Smily... Because once I start talking that face goes away and is replaced by lots of grins and smiles even when I am grieving.

Yep I used to do this:

And this is Clogging which is a little more flamboyant.... What I did in the clubs with others.
this starts out with clogging Squares or Square dancing while clogging.

Beer, I've tried shrooms in many different ways over the years, just not my thing. I'd love to like chantarelles, but alas, I don't.

Sam, I'm with you, small women are the most terrifying.

And hello, Jess!
