Maybe acknowledging the good mothering possibility isn't the same as 'the only thing she's good for.' I respect it mucho. Add intellect and I'm happy to be around her!
But that's not what it means. It means that childbearing is a woman's sole purpose. Hence why it's offensive. Its intended purpose is to be demeaning, derogatory and sexist.

What about the word do you like?



I guess I just don't get it. Dontknow To me, it's like black people throwing the N word around, or girls calling their friends "bitch," etc. in casual conversation. Both of which seem... inappropriate and tactless to me.
See, I'm one of those people that call my girl friends "bitch", my gay friends "homo", other racial slurs, etc. laugh out loud It's acceptable in the relationships that we have.

I work in an environment that is usually inappropriate and tactless, and I work with almost all men. I think I've just become accustomed to, and have learned to enjoy, lots of things that other people find offensive or derogatory. It's my sense of humor. Dontknow

I guess that's where we differ - I don't think it's appropriate because while it may be construed as acceptable with certain friends, to me, it teaches others that the particular word or phrase is acceptable, when it's really not.

It just creates another double standard like the N word - it's okay if black people say it, but if you're any other race, it's completely unacceptable. I just see no reason for women to use offensive terms like "bitch" or "broad" or "dame" or "ho" or a myriad of others to do the same thing.

That's just my perspective though. Smilie

Apparently, posting his picture publicly is just fine, but stating his age publicly, he's shy about. LMAO


That seems a little backwards to me... Coverlaugh
