#152482 - What we think we dont speak (mostly)
Responding to: ???'s previous message

Just a quick rant then I'll go away again,

A friend told me off today for referring to a blind person who we both know as being blind. She was trying to tell me that it was offensive, I was utterly gobsmacked, the guy knows he is blind,he refers to himself as being blind and he is blind so who the hell is being offended when I refer to him as being blind?

The world has gone utterly utterly insane.
Anyway having got that off my chest I shall go away again.


What we think we dont speak (mostly) . The question is does you friend never thinks him as a blind man? . This is the main problem with Ladies (mannerism!!) , just accept that she is right or you wont win .You may see this for yourself ,had this been a discussion between guys you might have heard even much better names ,but not when there is a discussion between a man and a women :) .
