Title: Not really significant but kinda funny
Post by: ClaireBlooming on January 11, 2024, 04:18:12 PM
I was having dinner with my daughter the other day.  She was complaining about the politics in her all-female workplace.  I almost choked on my fish when she looked at me and said "Aren't you glad you're a guy?"  ::)

Awesome! Reminds me of a story a few months before I came out at work. A co-worker mentioned a study that indicated the vast majority of shootings were by men, so there was a suggestion to only sell firearms to women. My first thought was 'well, in a few months that won't affect me one bit!'

Hi Claire

When I read your post all I did was laugh off my proverbial backside.  So poignant.

Best wishes and have a nice day

I'm still snickering.

Did you see my post on another topic?  Here's the relevant part:

You don't have to throw in peoples faces, just live your life.  Like I told my son some 15 years ago.  He said, "Pop, you wearing a bra?"  My reply was simply, "Since when have you worried about my choice of underwear, son?  I am who I am right?"  He shrugged and went on with his life.
