Is this a good reason? In my workplace we called women with moustaches
those women who are robbust and in high ranks. It has nothing to do
with what they look like - just that they've become less feminine,
harsh and similar to men in this 'man's world'. I can't recall when I
said it, but it wasn't anything to do with look since I'd seen none of
the faces in urg (until recently when someone posted a link to a past
meet).

I think there's been a lot of confusion, it could even be a culture
misunderstanding - I only wish I was taken as lightly as some people
here, who have recently posted a lot of rude words and have also been
thanked if not encouraged for it. Let's be totally honest now then.
