encountering snobs.
As a female, its more difficult to initiate a wave at cars as they pass. Men
often misconstrue the wave and other women think you're insane. What I
usually do is really let the other driver see that I am looking at his/her
car, often with open admiration. But, by and large, I still get ignored
despite the fact that I'm a gorgeous blonde, LOL, (with an excellent sense of
humor). The reason, as I see it, starts with the fact that most drivers I
encounter are going to and from, period. They are not out driving, enjoying,
they are being transported (albeit in the lap of luxury), nothing more.
I think this is especially true for women. Women seem less likely to be
enthusiasts. Many are driving the car that hubby bought them and they
couldn't care less beyond the creature comforts and perhaps the status that a
particular car may afford them. (I'm sure this fuels the attitude women
encounter at dealerships).
In terms of expectations, I think a good rule of thumb is the condition of
the front wheels.....
If they're black, no wave back!!!!
Enough from me,
