- coldtea 6y agoIt would be Freudian if there was some subconscious tendency at play to misread it. But here even though "mating" is sexual, the misread is quite easy and effortless because the word "matting" is an obscure industry term that looks totally like "mating"....

- johnchristopher 6y agoIn french language we have the "lapsus révélateur" catch phrase to call such slips.
