Emma and Molly talk ... and talk ... and talk about last week's episode of The Courtship. In this episode, two favorites go home, one favorite comes out, and a grown man pretends to be a cat, so you know things are starting to get serious. Also of interest: current rankings, reality vs. fiction, the etiquette of toasts, a defense of commitment issues, socially-sanctioned groping (AKA Blind Man's Bluff), men's sportswear through the ages, sexual fluidity and masculine ideals, queer romance recs, chemistry vs. compatibility, and several tearstained tissues.
