As I said, if you're looking to be offended you'll find it. But just to be sure I went back to see if I actually called YOU stupid.

Turns out I didn't. What I said was you are full of sh1t.

ROFLMAO!! Excellent response, Juulie...

OTOH, I gotta agree with Dan about the whole "finding ways to be offended" bit (and the part about him being a prick)...and I gotta say that it takes a lot, and I mean a LOT, to get Scrappy-Doo all fired up!!

Hard to believe, but I just read this thread for the first time. Sometimes it helps to state the obvious. Men, for the most part, take pride in trying to be as "manly" as possible. Men, also for the most part, spend a lot of time insulting other men. It is fair to say that most men are very interested in women. Therefore, most men have their own image of the ideal woman. This ideal woman would most often tend to be quite feminine, or, the opposite of a man, if you will. Therefore, what better way to insult another man than by calling him a woman. (the opposite of a man) These same men might see a woman that they perceive, rightfully or otherwise, to be not so feminine. One of the adjectives used to describe this woman is often manly. Is this intended to be derogatory to the woman? Probably so. Is this intended to be derogatory to men? I would say definitely not.

Try this one. One of the characteristics looked upon favorably by most men is to be tall. When one who is not so tall is referred to as "a little shrimp," is this offensive to shrimp?

My colleagues at "The Equal Rights for Shrimp Coalition" will hear of this! *shakes fist*

OK, now you're getting downright nasty! No reason, no reason at all, to take a perfectly good thread dealing with the dangers of the inherent sexist attitudes prevalent in today's society and turn that thread into a joke about Scrapper. That's just not right!

Yep, this one went squirrelly in a hurry. But it's okay, Scrappy's got the ba...hmmm, well, you get the picture.

And they'll be happy when they find it too.
