Re: Sherlock Holmes' appeal is elementary
Only a woman. Only a woman? That's a bit of an insult! Or am I being too sensitive?

Sounds a bit condescending to me. I suppose he doesn't know how many female Holmes experts there are.

Too sensitive.
It says only a woman; or a non-Holmes fan.
I'd agree with that; I can't see a man asking that; he would ask " does he eventually die?"
It doesn't mean all women would ask that.
Stop looking and observe.

Mycroft’s popularity doesn’t surprise me at all. He is, after all, incredibly beautiful, clever and well-dressed. And beautiful. Did I mention that?
