[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have just sent PP an offline message which explained that I am not outrageously offended by the term "tits" because I am past the feminist ideology I had at age 20 - at age 40 I have figured boys will always be boys and if I can't control that fact the I can at least control my responses to them.......at 20 a wolf whistle from a construction site was offensive - I had a construction worker wolf whistle at me the other day and at age 40 my reaction was to smile and I felt very tempted to shout out - "I can't hear you" so that he would do it again. (LOL) My previous email was directed at the hypocrisy of being politically correct - I recall when I first joined LUG - BD making comments about sexism - and he is now using the term "tits".......who said photographers do not have memories...
