Good answer!
On a slightly more serious note, do you get this kind of inappropriate, gender based question often? Not too often...thank God. Last time I heard that one, it came from a teenage kid with baggy pants,a baseball hat on backwards and a face painfully pierced all over the place. I assume most of the kids need to sort themselves out (mentally and in terms of their anatomy) sooner or later. Where I work, nothing surprises me anymore.
Is it actually inappropriate, or just sexist? Or, is my view of the question sexist?
Why shouldn't you reply in exactly the same way a male would to this 'question'? Testicles, vulvas... morally equal in every way, but socially quite different. |
Good point. I think it is sexist. Big time.
To make matters worse, notice that there are plenty of man-to-woman greetings that some might consider sexist as well.
What's cooking?...what can be possibly more sexist than telling you directly where you belong. And having said that, where do you find the male?....on the couch with the remote control watching NFL.
Don't like it.
OK. Le'ts take it a step further:
What's shaking? as in "C'mon shake your money makers" perhaps?...a little ambiguity there but most women would know which part of their body shakes the best. How sexist is that???
1920's phrase (Irish) How are you blowing? I think I will leave that one alone. Definitely don't like that one.
How are doing works best for me. Clean, safe, no innuendos.
