Ebbie said: I just realized what was wrong with your post, Alex. I rarely refer to 'political correctness' and its pros and misunderstood cons, but this is a case of it gone wrong, imo.

What you just said refers to quintessential political correctness. You ignored the context in which it occurred and jumped to a pc interpretation.

And yet, you were wrong. When I refer to my 48 year old daughter as a 'good girl', I am not being demeaning to her. In context, I am expressing my approbation of her.


Well if you say I have misjumped, I will take your word for it, albeit reluctantly.

O..O
