[QUOTE="keista, post: 435456, member: 11965"] Along the lines of Star's comebacks, a friend just posted this on FB I have no clue what the background story is, but I'm guessing it was along the same lines as we are discussing. [B]"What? You didn't understand that? Here, let me break out the crayons and hand puppets and see if we can dumb this down for you..."[/B] Marg WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!! "What I am tired of and what so many women are tired of is that whenever there is conflict, we have the Leader of the Opposition and senior (shadow) ministers [aka ALL MEN, some women too]reverting to this sort of sexist language." Reminded me of a young ADA I watched REPEATEDLY ask the opposing attorney to stop calling her Sweetie, Sweetheart, etc and to PLEASE address her with respect as an officer of the court. Judge was oblivious to it all until she petitioned the court to find him in contempt due to the sexist language. [/QUOTE]
