I am not sexist!
Oh my giddy Aunt – Roger Sutton is sexist – what does this make me!
I have called everyone darling or dear as far back as I can remember.
Never once I have thought it to be patronizing or sexist.
I touch folk on the arm.
I admire a lovely dress.
I admire all Harley Davidsons and their owners. (usually men)
I speak to strangers with the word darling or dear popped in somewhere along the way.
When I bump into tourists I usually ask, “Are you darlings enjoying your holiday?”
“You are looking exceedingly handsome/beautiful today.” This greeting is for elderly friends who are inflicted with some terrible ailment.
“Oh darling you are so brave to bungy jump.”
“What a darling family you are.”
“I love your hair colour darling.”
These are a few examples of my inappropriate behaviour but I think you get the picture!
Does this make me a sexist or patronizing?
Has the world gone crazy?
