I once ran into someone who commented on the body-policing thing kind of obliquely.

We were discussing beards and I mentioned that I didn't feel I could really ask Grey to shave his face, since it was HIS face and all. Someone burst out with "You mean he never asked you to--?" then broke off with "Nevermind."

I smiled sweetly and said, "Grey doesn't suffer from trichotillophobia," which got an initial laugh and a delayed one as people looked up the word on their smertfones.
