Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsI dialed a 1888 number to order something today. There was a blurb i didn't hear
then they asked me to press one if i was male. Press 2 if i was female. I thought that's odd that April Cornell would have a section for men. I pressed 2. Then the phone hung up. I realized i had been off by one digit in the 1888 number. I have no idea what type of place i called. Any suggestions?

(16,616 posts)2. I'm curious... I'm not sure I even want to guess about who it was.
In the novel The World According to Garp there's an organization of women that won't speak to men. Some of them actually cut out their tongues so they don't have to. I think I should just leave it at that, though.

(16,616 posts)10. Oh, sorry, I misread your post. You pressed 2.
This is a real mystery.
Maybe an Incel society that refuses to take calls from females?

Company would separate the women from the men when taking orders as I pressed "2".
