Whether liking the Audi A3 Cabriolet and 'Mamma Mia' so much means I am 'too' in touch with my feminine side...?

This has been insinuated...however I should point out...

The Audi A3 cabrio seems to be a distinct improvement on the A4 cabrio in a number of areas...but in the end it is a compact car which makes it a bit cheaper (thereby a more realistic future acquisition) and I am sure makes it more fun to drive, whilst there's still space for the kids in the back. So, what's wrong with that?

and...

Mamma Mia is a feel good film - of course - but over and above this I like the way it presents all generations in a kind of cool, positive light (and this is somewhat re-assuring for someone approaching their 'middle years') and since it is SO upbeat I can see myself watching it a few times, especially if I need cheering up! It's not as if when the dad in the Sound of Music finally breaks and starts to strum 'Adelweiss' I break down in tears as well? No, no, not at all!

What do YOU think?
(you may treat that as a genuine offer to comment, and not as a rhetorical question)

You might as well buy a manbag too and be done with it.

I don't think it's the A3 cabrio per se, rather the whole concept of a cabriolet. Although some might consider it to be overcompensating you can get the "wind in your hair" experience with something like this:
