« on: May 14, 2012, 02:54:27 PM »

 Add "Sweetie" to the word list.

No, sweetie.

REASON FOR ALERT:

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate. (See <a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=aboutus#communitystandards" target="_blank">Community Standards[/url].)

ALERTER'S COMMENTS:

Sweetie? Good God this post is sexist.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon May 14, 2012, 02:33 PM, and the Jury voted 3-3 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: I'm voting to leave it alone because zappaman called seabeyond "sweetie." Insulting, sure, but I'd pay tall green money to have seen her face when she read it. No, I'm not a nice person. Not my mole
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT and said: My darlings, as a sustaining member of the Anti-Sweetie Coalition, I disapprove of any sarcastic use of any term of endearment on DU no matter who uses it or why.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT and said: While defending the use of the word bitch, it is unwise to call the woman you are responding to "sweetie". It just gives credence to the view that you really are a sexist.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Someone called me "dearie" in another thread today. While I thought it was odd, I don't see how "sweetie" or "dearie" is sexist. It is gender neutral condescension, but not sexist.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given 


Good Lord! They is teh thinned skinned whiny over there.

That's some funny shit right there.  What happens if the Jury vote is a tie?

What about Calpiggy calling everyone "my dear DUmpmonkey"? Her use of "dear" is condescending, sarcastic and insulting.

A 3-3 vote gets left alone, subject to change by rule of jury. The jury could vote 4-2 to change the rules of the jury. That is, unless "The Magistrate" fillabusters.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

The word "dick" is a problem too:

Has anyone who has objected to the use of the word "bitch" actually said "Oh, but it's OK to call him a dick instead"?

(I really don't know. I don't remember seeing anyone make that statement, and I am curious to know if you have an example of someone saying this.)

I don't think it's OK to call Rush a "bitch" or a "dick". I don't like gendered insults, period.

Only because she is ugly. I would relish "dears" from Gina, for example.

I guess that rules out "sugarbritches" too, huh?

So would I.  The possibility is doubtful, though.  A couple of others, I would relish seeing that typed to me from.  (No, Snugs, not you. :tongue: Same from Dutch. :tongue: )

Chase her.
Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.
