Today a journalism student asked me if he could interview me for a project on International Women's Day. I agreed, because, hey, he's a student and I'm all about students gaining experience in their field, right?
Student: First question: Do you have a boyfriend?
Me: Is that seriously a question for Women's Day?
Student: Yeah. So, do you have a boyfriend?
Me: No....
Student: Oh (expression of concern)... So, what will you do on Women's Day?
Me: I'm going to get a manicure/pedicure.
Student: Who are you celebrating with?
...
Student again: Will you be alone on this day?
Me: Well... yeah.
Student: Oh... That's it, no more questions.
