... From: "Cathy Friedmann" But you ARE a girl. You're not a boy. Good grief, you're getting upset over this? Don't get your knickers in a knot! Oh wait, perhaps you don't refer to "them" as knickers so you should probably get upset over that too! I am neither a girl (as pointed out, haven't been for decades) nor, obviously, a boy. I take it you're not a boy, either, but a man? A rather chauvinistic man, it appears. No, I'm not chauvinistic by a long shot. But the whole gender sterotype seems to hold at least on this ng (generally speaking of course). I was simply pointing that out. Short story: If you - a male - want to go around calling women "girls", you have to be prepared to accept the fact that you are likely to offend *many* of them, not just me - or the other two or three women in this part of the thread, who also took offense to your condescending terminology/tone. This certainly holds true not just on Usenet, but also IRL. Cathy -- "Staccato signals of constant information..." ("The Boy in the Bubble") Paul Simon |

om... olitter (PawsForThought) wrote in message ... From: "Cathy Friedmann" LOL, and he IS behind. Seems he has nothing useful to say so he resorts to putting women down. Small mind, small words, small..... I'd guess that's similar to calling someone a dumb *uck right? I just want to make it clear that I did not write any of the words in that particular post, above yours/Steve's (it has a sort of double attribution, but there's only one post).
