That you're also a woman doesn't make much of a difference to me; I would likely have reacted in that manner no matter your gender.
[She says just a hair too quickly, betraying her awkwardness.] I received several love letters from female classmates while attending Yasogami High, but I can't say I ever gave them more than a second thought. I had other thoughts on my mind than romance.
