Sure, there was a red, lace tablecloth on the table and some candles even, but the female:male
In the world of wild animals, that would mean an all out battle, a fight to the finish with the dominant male coming out on top and claiming the one female as his own. You, Rai, and your friends are not wild animals, though. In fact, you and your baby buddies hardly noticed that on this Valentines Day, at the fancy Cybelle's Pizzeria, only one of you was a girl. All you boys just grabbed at whoever was nearest you, boy or girl, held hands with whomever was willing and cuddled with the nearest warm body.
And how can we forget your part, Rai, in this androgynous affair. You arrived flaunting those hot pink 'walking wings' that your grandparents picked up for you recently. The 'boy wearing pink' thing effectively wiped out the 'blue for boy' and 'pink for girl' conditioning all your playmates had gone through. A clean slate for gender roles and appearances. How San Francisco that is!
