I know the name bothers you because you've written
about it before. I think it was the timing of your 2
posts, more than anything, that struck me as being
funny. I just happened to be on the computer when
they fell into my inbox back to back.

But Rick, you shouldn't feel bad. If you want to hate
the name because it's a sucky name, well, OK then.
But to waste time worrying about the poor women who
have to "endure" it is something else. Women are only
that dainty in the imaginations of men. God knows,
I've had my ass turned inside out by a few of them.

So I only get an apology if I'm not white? You've
got me laughing again. Relax dude. You don't owe me
an apology, no matter what color I am.

Don't we all have flesh? Aren't we all colored?

I intended it as a humorous observation. I do
apologize
to anyone who perceived it as a put down. No matter
what color you are.
