Keep It Real wrote:Yeah pretty much, as are quite a few "ladies" i've met in the past. The trouble is it's got the word men/man in it.

Shit male drivers I address covertly as 'asshole'. So you see, 'lady' is not really gentler. Anytime I address a woman to her face as 'lady', she knows I mean 'asshole'.

I'm not just even-handed in my views on the sexes. I am also an equal opportunities insulter. So my daily greeting to my work colleague is 'morning, motherfucker'. My favourite insult to use towards my 17 year old daughter is 'you dick'. My usual response to Theresa May or Amber Rudd is 'that bastard'. Anyone calling me a lady has been woefully misinformed.

it annoys the fuck out of me on another forum i frequent where men address their wives/partners as 'my lady'....why the fuck not just say 'my wife'...fucking cringeworthy nonsense - it's not out of respect, it's not out of deference...it's just...well....mealy-mouthed...

Wait, so you don't want to offend people who don't like woman because it's got man in it, but you think those same people would be totally fine with "lady" or "bird"
