Am I missing something?

1)
"Casual" was found in the Cambridge International Dictionary of English at the entries listed below.

casual (NOT INTERESTED)
casual (TEMPORARY)
casual (CHANCE)
casual (INFORMAL)

Which interpretation is insulting? The comment itself was meant to be somewhat satirical.

2)
Isn't this the forum where men and women are expected to have different viewpoints? Are women really from Venus or men from Mars?

If it's an unwritten rule that this forum is one where those "from Venus" can say what they want and others are brutes for responding, then I will certainly stay away from this forum.

4)
Is there some reason the offended party can't speak for herself?

3)
I didn't just fall off the yucca truck. The archives are full of posts telling men how foolish they would be to marry a Dominican, and advising them about the high divorce rate. One doesn't have to be Sherlock Holmes to notice that many Dominican women have children from multiple men.

OF COURSE THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS TO ANYTHING AND ONE IS AT LIBERTY TO INCLUDE HIMSELF (OR HERSELF) IN THOSE EXCEPTIONS.

I don't recall having ever called anyone out by name in a negative way on this board.

Why do people post unless they want responses? In those posts, a bit of satire and levity can help to keep the discussion lively, yet friendly. In a different thread, I made an accurate (but I hoped comical) statement about Dominicans' use of toilet paper, and got an assinine reply. I ignored it. Sometimes it's better to simply go on.
