    Would you be nice to a person who came on your land to do you or your family harm? Being Nice has a time and place! Were, Germans nice to Jews? They started off NIce... If a person is doing you wrong, we'll they're gonna know about it. We yell at our elected leaders all the time regardless what side of the aisle your on. Do unto others as you would have done to you! With that said; Starting off nice is great, Until... And, if your lying to my face then I'm gonna call you on it! Such as telling me your something your NOT!

    When I had to do some union busting work, I tried to be nice, but it doesn't work with communism. You have to use integrity first is what I found out, and appeasement doesn't work with them. They just whine more. But I did try reasoning with them first.

    I think your examples are not even close to what we are discussing here.

    Being nice to someone doesn't mean agreeing with them.

    The Bible calls me to speak the truth but with love.

    If that teller had entered into a discussion with me about how she was a woman, I would tell her that biology was not on her side and that God made man and woman and science supports that fact.

    Calling her "Nancy" and "she" are just being polite...nice. if you think that renders me incapable from arguing science where appropriate (not at a Walmart checkout line) you are mistaken.

    Ugh! A school a couple towns over is having issues with trying to handle all sorts of issues in relation to a child that is entirely way too old to be behaving this way but mom and dad see nothing wrong with their upper elementary child identifying as a dragon. This year's teacher is having none of it and I do not blame them. If a student only answers in roars and hisses, will not participate in any activity, and demonstrates no real interest, they deserve to be failed. Parents just want him passed along and appeased. I'm sorry but they are engaging in a delusional reality that is setting this kid on a path to severe life problems.

    :picard:Cant say much else. I just don’t understand. Personally I think the parents should be questioned for child endangerment. These kids are never going to adjust to being an adult. Just my 2cents

    I think I derailed your thread by bringing up the gender thing. I apologize for that. But to answer your question. I use sir and ma'am, no matter what age. I don't know what else to call them.

    What is sad to think of is that this kind of humor won't be acceptable anymore.

    Imagine them trying to get Blazing Saddles made in today's environment?

    Any more?
    Too late!

    The pc crowd says its not ok .....
    You are instantly canceled for any "joke" or even a past "intolerant" remark... even if it was done for humor.
    The pc types want everyone treated equal, unless they don't agree with you, then they won't treat you equal.
