People are so oversensitive over everything its hilarious! They're just WORDS. I don't understand people getting upset over WORDs no matter what their connotations.

Well it is in FYM, honestly I don't think I've ever seen that specific one here before. Points for being the first I suppose. I just wonder what's next-after all we've already had the women are good for nothing but cooking, cleaning, and ironing and men are smarter than women and the chancellor of Germany is an ugly old hag...
And so many more that I can't recall right now

I'd like to see what would happen if I started a bunch of sexist threads about men here and made a bunch of sexist posts about them.

Some people are very thin skinned, I almost think you just want to feel offended.
MrsSpringsteen said:
Yep, that's it-I just want to feel offended. Beyond just your comments there tends to be a consistent pattern of sexist comments here, and believe me I am not the only one who notices or comments upon them.

If you made a somewhat sexist remark in a subtle comical manner I wouldn't care and I'd find it funny (on the proviso that it is funny), even if you were serious about it, I promise I wouldn't go on a rant about the inherent sexism embedded in women towards men.

Speaking as an Asian-American, I am a bit puzzled as to how a slur that mean kids spewed at me while they made fun of my slanty eyes on the playground compares to a slur that has several hundred years of slavery, violence and discrimination behind it. Your mileage may vary.
