One of the Guys
Every girl has said, at one point in her life, "Oh, I'm just one of the guys."
Especially if you, say, have an engineering degree. Especially if you maybe have two of them. ESPECIALLY if your graduating class was eight women...and FIFTY-FIVE MEN. You might really especially say this if you, say, like cars, and own a big dog, and spent your entire career in math and science classes.
Especially if you, say, work at a place that has stats of TWENTY-FIVE TO ONE, men to women, and so all the people you work with, hang out with, all your friends from work, EVERYONE you know, is a man.
Especially if maybe your boyfriend is in the military, and all his friends are...you guessed it...men.
ESPECIALLY if you, say, don't shower regularly, don't generally cook, and don't even own measuring cups or a cookie sheet.
You might be allowed to say that you were "one of the guys".
But when you're hanging out with three guys, and you realize that in just two hours, you've seen at least 8 "adjustments", with absolutely no shame...
...you know you're really one of the guys.

Ah, so it's the "one of the guys" Yin to the "I'm ecstatic over duvet covers" Yang. A dualism surely to make even Descartes proud.
