My guess is that non-shoe-chattering women have more practice than men at identifying other non-shoe-chatterers. But also that even most women who aren’t interested in shoes learn to do a little.
When I moved to Denmark, I wasn’t good at finding Danes I wanted to be friends with. Then I realized I didn’t want to be friends with most Americans, but I was better at finding kindred spirits in America because I had more practice at reading Americans.
Not much. In Copenhagen, 95% of young women wear a lot of eye makeup. I have a theory that there’s something significant about the 5% who don’t, but I never really found out. Christiania is a place to look for counter-cultural types, though some of that centers on drug use.

Did you learn anything about reading Danes? I’m going to spend a few months there soon.
