RE: International standards for various forms of profile data

David asks:

Merle, now tell me why a waitress at the Octoberfest, who has been married
for 40 years and can serve at least 15 full one-liter glasses at once, is
still addressed as "Fräulein"? She is definitely 200% female and not a
neuter .... but she might neuter you 

I think there must be a lifestyles mailing list that could answer this.
Alas, I cannot tell you what it is.  ;-)
