Words and cultural differences

[paulpablo]

I guess it's an old fashioned thing, at least where I work and where I live in general, women are treated as more delicate and as if they will be more easily offended than men.

In my work a standard man greeting to another man is "Alright you ugly cunt? You look like you put on weight."  That wouldn't make anyone flutter an eyelid.  If someone said that to a woman there'd be uproar.

I tend to go along with this, I can take it as a joke and it doesn't affect my self confidence. I know the women I know would be more offended by things like this so I don't do it, they're pretty nice to me so I'm pretty nice to them. I suppose I might drop the C bomb if a woman was horrible to me for some reason.

As for racial slurs there's a hierarchy of offense in my culture. Nigger is at the top, followed by paki, then whatever else, kyke, chink, cracker, honkey.
