Fear not my Husky Brethren

Crossover said:
When I was in law school I had a professor who began every class by saying"Good morning gentlemen". When told by a student that this salutation excluded her, he insisted that gentlemen is an inclusive term. When the person insisting that up includes down has such disproportionate power, only one "beholder" gets to determine meaning.

That sounds a little like the old Abbott & Costello "Who's On First" routine.

Nan, in the Baptist church the word "bretheren" was an inclusive term. The minister used it when addressing the entire audience. I never thought of it as being a sexist term. But, I guess, it's in the eye of the beholder.

Frankly I thought the post was about new weight loss program/product for men.
 
I read the headline, saw that Michele Voepel was involved and thought, wow, a rational article written by Michele? I read it and then immediately reverted back to my prior view of her-she offers no real thought, depth of analysis or insight. She babbled about Geno's pressers and not the title of the thread about why they shouldn't panic. Graham Hays at least stated have flaws like any of the others to make a run but neither gave a case to not panic....And they get paid to say nothing? We have 3,000 posters on here who do that for free! Myself included...:rolleyes:
