Ccincy: I'm confused how is calling someone dear being offensive? I've had men call me Hun,Babe,Doll,and of course Dear and I don't find it offensive at all.So that would mean that if I call any man on here even though I'm not in love with him Sweetie that means I'm being offensive and I'm putting them down.
Here in Tenerife there are quite a few Indian & Pakistani people, and some of those are friends of ours. I find that they use the term 'dear' as some English people call each other 'love' or 'duck' or 'hen' purely as a friendly saying. Forgive me if I am wrong but surely it is simply a custom, and not an insult.

CjTenorSax: Bahi!!!! Happy New Year to you, too!!! Helllooooo, you were very much missed, to my Bahi! I DID look you and Tainio up first when I got back. But you were gone. Both of you, amongst so many other good people. Noone knew what happened to you guys. I was hoping you two would come back and were not banned to the trolls, like other folk.

CjTenorSax: I am fine thanks. How is your New Year so far? || As for, your last question, I explained it in more detail on the other thread. I guess, I should add that this is a ~ 3 million mile wide Country and it is going to vary from State to State even within some of the same States or areas. Each State is almost like a small country in themselves with different rules spoken and unspoken on what is acceptable and why. || BTW what does the last one in your list mean?
Can't remember what the last one was now lol Remind me please
I understand culture differences completely I just didn't understand the depth of anger she reached because of it

Jail!! Both of you??? Oh, no!! I guess you better tell me in email, 'cause if I understand right, all bannings are now permanent. So, I don't know if there even is a CS Jail anymore. Seems like it is all eggshells in here now. BTW, you got mail.
Mnowsa has been a CS member for a very long time. We have had different political views but rest be assured, if he called me dear, I would not take it as an offense. He is truly one of the very politest,nicest and decent guys on the forums. One of the CS gems for sure amongst the many male gems that are here.
The scammers that email us with the Dearie lines make me puke. And the rest of their Dearie email is dribble.
Here's a hug to you Mnowsa. Hope this will be a good start to your day.
joyannie: I missed it where are the rules "you got"? And are you going to say anything of consequense? I just supported you on another of your threads. What do you want from CS?
Where is the frustrated emoticon when you want one?
