- Or my own favorite example, from Trollope's "The Prime Minister" He thought
- that the lead male was more perfect person than the lead female even though
- the lead male was a thoroughly dull, stick-in-the-mud, prim&proper person
- who was of no interest whatsoever. The lead female, on the other hand, was
- inferior because she was vivacious, interested in people, and liked parties.
-
- The lead female was also described as "quite attractive despite her red hair."
- Huh? What's he mean, "despite" red hair? Red has got to be the most
- attractive hair color of all.
