Can you imagine that the day has come where we have to choose the correct words to complement someone? How sad is that.

What is most sad is when a person refuses to learn anything new. If the term is now considered disrespectful, I most certainly will never use the term again. I will reiterate "Can't we all learn something new?" Kind of like once we know better, we do better courtesy of Maya Angelou.

I'm sure that fourpaws meant no offense at all and probably had no idea how the word is viewed now, which I did explain in my last post.

My parents' generation used to refer to "colored" people. We know better today and are hopefully more sensitive in our dealings with others.

That's not "politically correct"; it's common decency.

I think Amy and Nancy Hornbeck are probably the prettiest hosts at QVC. Of course all of the hosts' are very attractive.

My pick for prettiest host is Sandra Bennett.

Hi Ford! We will always be in agreement over that. Sandra is a natural beauty.....

Sandra gets my vote too.

Oriental? wow, that is so not allowed.

Good Grief, I meant that as a compliment. I think Asian women are very beautiful, simple as that, excuse me if I said something wrong!

And it was understood as such four paws. Not as a slur, nor uncommon decency and don't even get me started on politically incorrect. The world has truly become a ridiculous place....
