The reverse equivalent might be me going into a thread on red leather trousers and saying "That's intriguing. Have you considered deconstructing these trousers as a

That'd be cool. So then maybe the Intellectual Giants go off on a pomo fashion tangent while the Nattering Nitwits continue trying to determine Avon's religion frame-by-frame...both directions (in my opinion) equally deserving of the header "Red Leather Trousers". Up with
multipseudoculturalism!
Ah, but what happens when the question of Avon's religion starts to enter into the cultural trope of the elasticity of the trouser-flies? Postmodernists are totally stuck on religious and sexual imagery, you know...
A lot of people would flame me, and for good reason.
What is this good reason (assuming you don't have me killfiled yet, although I hope you do)?
Penny, I would never killfile the woman I love :).
What do you consider the acceptable parameters of red trousers talk?
I just meant that some people might not like to have their enjoyment of speculation on Avon's religion ruined by someone attempting a Foucauldian analysis thereof-- although perhaps they might be hurt by it, and then we could comfort them :)...
