I also called Herc a gigalo and Martian called me gay... but no torches were lit. In fact, as I recall, just afterwards, one of the guys (herc or Bada, I think), was labeled as a cheap transvestite that sleeps around, but no one cared. It's a small side comment about a women in the midst of calling each other names as a farce, that gets people still holding grudges after what, thirty pages?
No ones holding grudges as far as I can see, me and Bada dropped it after about two or three posts, we didn't like the term and explained that.
I'm old fashioned so Is Bada, as far as I go, you can say what the hell you like to me but never insult a woman.
We both said our pieces and moved on, Red may have used it just to yank you're chain but its done and history as far as I'm concerned and as far as Bada, Marea and Kaya are concerned too.
Originally posted by HerculesMeh. Red was using it as ammo, and I didn't feel he knew the whole story. It's still sexism, nonetheless. I'm not the only one to have pointed that out. You guys have said your pieces, I've said mine, but I was just defending my name when it was brought up again.

But, from what I can tell, no harm, no foul.

Originally posted by HerculesI agree, the only thing that will get me angry is insulting the ladies.

Originally posted by HerculesI don't have a problem with anybody. Hell, I have almost all of your bios in my profile. 😎

Originally posted by SpunkySmurphThere's a difference between chauvinism and chivalry.
Put it however you want, still chauvinism...
chauvinism
Prejudiced belief in the superiority of one's own gender, group, or kind.
chivalry
The qualities idealized by knighthood, such as bravery, courtesy, honor, and gallantry toward women.
Originally posted by SpunkySmurphNobody is calling you kid, little guy. 😎 You just need to stop acting obtuse. 😉 You just got mixed up between chauvinism and chivalry. Hey, at least they have some of the same letters. 😄
Meh. I'll still uphold my opinion if anybody brings it up.Oh, and don't call me kid.
Originally posted by BadabingUgh. I wasn't mixed up. I know perfectly well what they both mean. It is chauvinistic to hold the belief that men may be insulted continuously, but women must be defended at the slightest gesture.

Don't worry, it's ok if you take a moment to grasp it. After all, you're italian.
