Comments

Strong independent woman! While the Beijing underpants are a very good mnemonic symbol, the mnemonic itself isn't very good, since the daisies, berets and mandarins as the underpant's pattern can be arbitrarily replaced with other objects. It would be better to use a mnemonic using the daisie's smell, the mandarin's squishiness and taste, and the beret's soft cloth. But this is something I learned way after I wrote this one. Maybe I'll write a better mnemonic some day.
