i thought of that word, the pick word, when the image of bill gates and his wife melinda briefly flew past on the telebision. the abovementioned woman i used to work with remarked to me that she couldn‘t understand why bill gates whould “pick“ melinda based on passing observations, arbitrary criteria, white cultural standards. my mother made the same generality, assuming that the man “picked“ the woman. i don‘t rmemeber now who she referred to or the circumstance but i remember how pointedly she asked why a certain man “picked“ a certain woman. “why would he pick her?“ asked in a nasally annoyed voice.
who picks who? whom
