The use of "lady doctor" has faded considerably, now that women are not only going to med school in greater numbers, but are often choosing to serve in the less glamorous roles of family medicine and pediatrics, so they are often one's main doctor. As for "female musician", I have never encountered it. Not once. And I don't seem to be a carrier for the idea that musicians are male by default. Composers and conductors, otoh...

"Male nurse" is still going strong, although they are less of a rarity now.

Chris Martin is right! I don't like his music but if listening to OK Computer got him that babe Gwyneth then you can't say it's that terrible!

Gwyneth was totally insufferable and intolerable until, like, 3 years ago?

lookit the paragraph starting "'Fangtasia,' Pam said" -- there's places where the gaps between words are larger than the words themselves -- now admittedly i. a small subset of people will care and ii. this appears to be from one of those true blood novels so w/e

i don't know, i assume the normal response is "why in the hell would that bother you" and then i say "you don't know it but it's crippling your reading experience" and then i turn into that guy who starts the dynamic range compression threads and refuse to go outside because i might hear some music that's not on my perfectly magnetically balanced insulated and feng shui-ed hi fi system

I dont like watching an undead 3D model in an evening gown run awkwardly down hallways for hours at a time for a fleeting external environment money shot

The Suarez Report is weirdly engrossing. Quite amusing reading references to Mr. Kuyt and so on
