Oh, yes!!! Works perfectly!!! And I suspect that the same thing works well for males of a certain...something for which I can't find the word now.

'Disposition' just sounds negative, I think. 'Position' on its own makes people start to wonder...

And mine was something like this, in my head:

CONCORDE: Actually, I think I'm all right to come with you--
LAUNCELOT: No, no, sweet Concorde! Stay here! I will send help as

particular... (sigh)
CONCORDE: Idiom, sir?
LAUNCELOT: Idiom!

:D
