	Well whaddaya know? :) To call female actors an 'actress' would=20
be inapropriate (unless you use that term on people who you think can't=20
act, and that applies to males too).

Then what about 'goddess'? I do belive that that _is_ a gender specific =
term. In fact, I suppose that the Bell and Co, would insist that you =
refer to them as 'goddesses'.
