Well, the Swedes had a few very well dressed, very well combed, and well behaved young gentlemen. Anybody remember the Herreys? My grandmother found them absolutely adorable.

Moved to General Discussion for, fairly obvious reasons. It’s grown into a big thread. Thanks for keeping a civil discussion, guys

Perhaps not the ideal term of address after someone just complained about being called sir in the other thread.

Neither is being snarky and off-topic.

Not sure that was supposed to end up after my comment. Threading issue?

Sorry, I always mess up those links. I don’t have in mind that a forum link by default directs you to the last post made.

I do see your point, and can write long rants about the male-normative internet attitudes myself, but in UK english at least ‘guys’ is usually accepted as a gender neutral term in a context like Xezr’s. I hope that takes a little sting out of that post.

Thank you, sir.

I wasn’t the one who had the original complaint, but it’s good practice nonetheless. That said, if you take a look at the UK at present, I think you’ll find there are few things people agree on. 
Perhaps unsurprisingly, my circle is more on the progressive side. Where are you from again?

I’m so much for equality in pretty much all walks of life, but until Facebook came around, the internet population was probably 99.98% mildly social dysfunctional males. But I once (shortly) ended up in a setting with women only and besides feeling like a deer caught in the headlights I sensed a tiny bit of female-nominative attitudes myself as well. So, please, let us not get overexcited here. I’ve just hired a female hardware engineer and until she actually proved herself to exist I pretty much considered the concept a contradiction in term.

No, it really wasn’t! And I think that’s all I should say on that in this thread.
@Ennui I remembered the post you’re linking to. I was a bit distracted before, I admit. I’m “from” the UK and curious why you asked. Maybe that’s more appropriate in dm?
