Dearest Smedders, Sir, I humbly beseech your most eloquent of replies and pay yet more respect to your wonderful choice of words. Your point is taken but if I may be so bold as to suggest I have no intention to dwelleth on person's bottoms. I think that I can womanfestly say, without a fear to be contradicted, that such practices may actually be outlawed in most folk forums. Whilst those that would allow such thing may demand of me to wear a blindfold - or at least cover my eyes somehow - in order that my innocent eyes are not unchastened.

Sir, I am so grateful for your interdiction and advice for my safety. And, whilst not a humble servant, I am nevertheless, humbled by your concern for my purity.

May your strings never twang and always stay unbroken

Your humble correspondent
