Queer eye for the straight girl
I was perpetuating a stereotype when I was asked to go shopping with a friend to help her decide which light fitting was going to look best. She couldn't make up her mind between two, and there was a third possibility also. Of course the two had to be in different shops. She first took me to the one she wasn't favouring as much, thinking that when I saw the second I could confirm that it was better. With colour swatches in hand we looked at both, and eventually selected the first.
