For Cain and Mr. Riff

only the intellectually, emotionally and socially challenged would think that women's physical attributes define who they are and their value  instead of  the myriad ways they are able to and are contributing to society. 

Zed, I happen to know what some of these people look like who are talking about women's weight.  Is a pot allowed to call the kettle black?  And to make things worse Priya is taller than a few of them!!

Knowing people here may not be good for you

There are only two persons here I don't know.  And Don't worry I have Scotland Yard watching my back. 

I am one of those two.

You are so lucky. Do you know she dances like Helen? 

Is that a compliment?

Cain, I raised by only daughter to be assertive, educated, self confident and self reliant because when I was growing up in Guyana, I saw how Guyanese women in certain segments of the population were treated.

We need to name things for what they are, even if those things are said as jokes. We are living in an environment such things are not tolerated anymore in the societies in which we live. It is not about being uptight and needing to loosen up (though I agree with your statement, but that is who I am and it is responsible for my success in whatever I do), it is about what is right!

Zed...I wasn't the one who mentioned loosen up though I do agree. My post was obviously in jest...taken from a very old joke. The day I stop joking would be the day I die. Two things I live by...humour and trust.

Cain, I was picking coffee in the Pomeroon river one Christmas holiday from school when I heard that joke. 

One of the things that I have come to understand because I was supervising lots of people was that only make jokes about yourself, that they will use any other against you when issues develop. 

Man, the world is changing and the things we did or said that were accepted earlier in our life are not acceptable now. We all need to learn new lines and have a couple to remind us if the good old days.

Not to forget, some memorable suggestive insinuations; double-meanings galore.
