don't ever come to a construction site, then.


i argue with contractors all the time who think they know something about engineering.

Yeah, my stepdad (a contractor currently in charge of building a new subdivision on the Kona Coast) says the same thing about you engineers.

NYCLawyer... I usually try not and post in heated topics, but if you would like to make aggressive, attacking comments towards other GC posters, as a fellow sister, please refrain from posting your letters. Not only do you make yourself look bad, but it reflects on Tridelta as a whole.
I know you are new to GC, so you haven't learned the nuances and norms of posting here. It is not necessarily what you are posting, but how you are posting and blantantly attacking another member. Firecracker was gracious and classy enough to extend the symbolic white flag, but I promise you many GC members will not give you the same courtesy in a similar situation.

And to add to this, both Colleen (goldendelta) and I know that our nationals do read this board, so keep that in mind when you are posting.

The question of blacks from the U.S. and from elsewhere was asked. It wasn't offensive to me at all because it wasn't expressed in an offensive manner. It was just a faulty comparison if we are talking about different Asian groups.

Is your problem that this discussion is going on in this thread PERIOD or how some people are responding? Groups of people have things in common, such as culture and common physical attributes. That is a FACT and there are fewer exceptions when groups are less mixed with other races and ethnicities. "Wearing too much make-up" is silly and offensive, but I think most people in this thread are having a candid discussion in which they are trying to unoffensively distinguish between-groups.

i don't think there is anything wrong with my comments on the stereotypes that are being written on this board.

You don't have to defend how you defended your race.

Things like "wear too much make-up" are stereotypes.

No duh. That's what I mean - it's not new to me because I live in Canada.
