I use it to girls at work and also to any other girls i likeand they have never had no quarels that it is sexist and i shall continue to use it as long as they never take offense to it and it keeps the world a happy place, this is probably due to me not using it in a sexist manner
1. The girls on these forums aren't the girls at your work.
2. There's a little thing called consideration, it means taking into consideration how others will react.
and they know so in this day and age people can say sexist and racial terms and not be considered racist or sexist...comedians being the obvious example but there is a line and that line can be crossed but as veiws change the line gets moved and hope not to cross it.
Yeah, comedians do it IF they are a minority (black, mexican, jew, etc). It's okay for them to poke fun at it because it could very well apply to themselves, but they're not letting it. It's a way to make the word lose it's strength, or so they say. But the line is crossed if it's someone in the majority using racist terms, or a certain gender using sexist terms for the opposite sex.
I also feel you are beggining to take this to a personal level. lets keep it here please(not a stab at you)
Why would I take it personally? I'm not a woman. What annoys me is your blatant disregard of being courteous to the women here, not being able to back up your argument well, and knowing full well that using "dumb blonde" is being sexist but still doing it.
Let me make this perfectly clear to you: it does not matter if the girls at your work do not take offense to it. Other people do take offense to it, and the way you have been using the term in your last few posts has been nothing but sexist.
