My mom, who went to a fair number of professional conferences, thought pants suits were the greatest thing since permanent press, and wore them with enthusiasm.

She told me that at one conference (sometime in the late 70s I think), a couple of nice ladies took her aside and told her that really, you know, it wasn't the Done Thing to _always_ wear pants suits. After all, people might think she was a <gasp!> Lesbian.

Being happily married since 1943 and the mother of four, my mom thought this was hysterically funny!
