Yesterday I found that the co-incidence of men using demeaning language to me was positively epic. I had 3 “luvs”, 1 “sweetheart”, 1 “pet”,2 ”darlings”, and the culmination, during a phone call, when I told a self-published author that I had displayed his books in the window, he cried “Good girl”!. Biting back the impulse to tell him I was a bookseller, not a collie dog.. |I wondered, do my male equivalents get this sort of language? I don’t think so. If any of you can contradict me please feel free.
