Nyah, someone said that to me once and I didn't mind. Kind of gender-neutral comment, I suppose.Originally posted by Zigenare View PostThat's bulltulip and you know it! If I asked one of the harpies at our place "how's it hanging?" I'd be out of the door tout suite!
I open doors for men also if there first, it is just manners.
Being patted, on the other hand - have suffered this, it is horrible. Worse if they are above you in chain of command as they resent you if you ask them to pack it in.Last edited by LadyPenelope; 3 December 2019, 15:36.Comment
