Surely, I couldn’t be the only reader to catch the mistake in Laurie Winer’s otherwise excellent commentary “Women, Sense and Sensibility” (Oct. 14).
In the last paragraph, Winer writes, “In the end, men may be from Mars and women are Venetians who actually have faults.”
Well, she (or her proofreader) let the “Venusians” off the hook, but I’ll bet a lot of outraged Italian signorinas from Venice will be very offended!
Or is she just referring to Kate in “The Taming of the Shrew”?
Inquiring Martians want to know.
