Thread Name: Just do it.
Subject: RE: Just do it.
Anyone know the proper phrasing for the Simone de Beauvoir quote from the daycare scenes in a 70s Doonesbury strip with Joanie - something about there being 2 kinds of people, human beings and men (or human beings and women, I can't get it to make sense either way, but the gist is ...) that when women start acting like human beings, they are accused of trying to be men?

Act like a human being, is my motto. Which, when I say it to my kids, tends to come out Behave! - to which at least one has already answered But mom, I'm being hayve!
