Which is why we see more and more female actresses proclaiming themselves to be 'actors' (which is MALE in gender).
Funny thing is that traditionally "Mistress" indicates that the woman is the head of whatever area she controled. Thus unless you are talking about someones lover then it is a trem of respect.


PS: scratch that theory about who MPM really is. Yeah I'm trying to whittle down who MPM really is as a way to pass the time and test my information gathering and analysing skills. Then again I really don't know much more than the major names in the film armorer buisiness.
