Yes, pink!" and lollypops and frou-frou skirts from Mothercare and claiming to be useless and wanting to be a pwincess.
We've bred this new genre of post-post-feminists who play on acting vacuous and say women should never buy drinks and how their top film is Legally Blonde and Paris Hilton is "proper aspirational" and that they know that some big stwong man will look after them one day and make everything all right. Hint: he won't. Put your clothes on and bl***y grow up.
Actually, maybe I'm totally wrong here. They're probably quite sweet once they've calmed down. Three weeks of eating chickpeas and having to bathe in the lounge should do it. At least it might stop them running around making high-pitched noises.
