True, but sometimes I think we go a little too far with PC now. I still hear women calling their husbands "my old man" and husbands calling their wife "the ball and chain". "The little lady", while it could be viewed as insulting, if you think about it, it could also be considered a complement. We're so PC now that people are afraid to say anything for fear of insulting someone. And that's wrong.
As the saying goes.. "You can please some of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time" Somewhere along the line, someone's going to get insulted. We need to learn to just shrug it off and get on with our lives.. or soon we'll be going back to duels over a persons honor for being insulted...
