Marion	BS: Usage: -ess suffix for female operatives (187* d)	RE: BS: Usage: -ess suffix for female operatives	22 Nov 09
I'm not aware of that tradition, but assuming that you're correct, that doesn't change my point that male and female actors aren't generally interchangeable and can therefore be seen as doing different jobs. A better exception to the rule would be extra roles like "other people on the street" that can be filled by anyone. Marion
