I'm not sure what is happening to my comments here. But I think I got my playfulness, and perhaps the affinity for the porpoise from my mother.
As for the second point, I'm not sure I'm a social justice person or not. I may have become one without being aware of it. Feminist, however, is a word that still has negative connotations in my mind. I'm not sure why. It could be the vestiges of growing up in a very male-dominated authoritarian church and having a father who is very anti-feminist in his attitudes. (I was not there when he said, "Mormonism is easy for the woman. All you have to do is what your husband tells you." I understand my sister was and ripped into him.)
