Horse or cow?

Now I'll take that as a good supporting argument for Kraj's assertion that our values regarding sexuality are a bit wacky...

I'd wager that it has something to do with the fact that the industry has typically been dominated by men in the past and probably still today.

Hum...Good point, That's what I would suspect as well...

Second of all, why is male nudity considered to be more 'offensive' than female nudity?

Good point. I was watching a show called "Cops" featuring the Mardi Gras festival. Girls were allowed to flash their assets without interruption from the police. But as soon as a man dropped his pants for a 'moon' - his arse was under arrest.

Is it more acceptable for women to be lewd than it is for men?

 

[Rich]

Polite 101 for Ricki's sake; The female remark is fine, but if you'd used a derogatory word like the 'c' word instead of 'female', then that would have been rude.

I didn't, nor have I ever used the "c" word here or anywhere else for that matter, please don't lecture me on decorum.

I wouldn't think so. But hey, I'm all for equality of the sexes.

LMAO again. I doubt whether you have ever been on the receiving end of a lecture.

 

[Rich]

I don't know that all do. I'd rather not take the risk considering the dictionary defines "chink" as an offensive term. You've added two letters to the end and ... voila! ... an amicable term for all to use.

Common sense Rich... just a bit of common sense.

Which dictionary and don't lecture me on common sense when referring to ethnic minorities, I meet more foreigners in a year during the course of my work than most here can dream of in a lifetime

I didn't take Ken's remark as a lecture either. More that he was just trying to illustrate a point...

beauty, or even offence, is in the eyes of the beholder

Which dictionary

Will the Oxford English dictionary suffice?

and don't lecture me on common sense when referring to ethnic minorities, I meet more foreigners in a year during the course of my work than most here can dream of in a lifetime

You'd better call the Oxford University up and tell them their book is inaccurate then.

If you greet them with your ethnic slurs that would explain why you spend so much time around here and not working

Yeah, that's funny this site doesn't list it as such

http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=chink

and this site brings up
http://www.britannica.com/search?query=chink&submit=Find&source=MWTEXT

shows just how unreliable the internet can be when searching for justification for one's own narrow point of view

As long as they don't work for Oxford University he'll be received warmly

Then when are you going to start talking like an adult

 

[Rich]

Oxford's redundant, I live in a city with the largest student campus in the country

 

[Pauldohert]

Where is that?

 

[KenHigg]

You're losing ground...

What do you not understand about "usually offensive"

 

[Rich]

I don't nor have I ever greeted or referred to anybody using ethnic slurs.
