The problem with you yanks currently on this board, is you're like a kid in the playground that gets teased all the time (which is unfair). Then someone approaches you to make friends and you quickly snap at them and be mean. The thing is, that person was actually coming over to try and make friends! You're insecure and already juding before you take a second to find out what the person means.

And your problem is that you don't realize that what you might say, regardless as to what you mean to say, might be regarded as insulting. So instead of saying sorry, you immediately shift the blame to us poor ole Americans who can't seem to read and understand what we see.

Don't pawn this off like you have a little angel halo over your head. You wrote something that could be taken as insulting, even if you didn't mean to.

Look, I have done the same at work on occasion. Granted my female coworkers seem to have a dirtier mind then me sometimes, there has been an instance or two where I have said something that just crosses the line and offends one of them. If they tell me, I apologize, I don't go blaming them for being too uptight or being insecure. Because it was my mistake.
