Hmm.

One of the questions in our Spanish textbook asked us to write a sentence about José María. The correct sentence was "José María esta hacienda la comida y tú vas a recoger la mesa." No problems there - José María makes the food and you are going to lay the table but how can someone have a boy and a girl's name? I asked our teacher and she told us that whilst José María is a boy, María José would be a girl. The rule only applies to the name María though.

Then I found this picture of a lady at the Feria and wondered whether she was María José or José María. Whatever she is called she seems to be enjoying that cigar. Is it just me or is there something sexy about a woman smoking a cigar?
