[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You handled it perfectly, OP. I think the reason you're still annoyed is that you're probably sensing a lot of misogyny and general contempt for women and perhaps anyone who isn't in his social group from this particular person. Try not to let it show.[/quote] No, it’s her own internalized struggle with being an older women. The kid probably just hangs out with people with a sense of humor and needs to learn how to code switch for old, humorless people at work. [/quote] Just stop. [/quote] If you are finding “general contempt for women” everywhere you go then it sounds like a you issue. [/quote] The previous poster did not mention contempt for women. What are you talking about?[/quote] Look at the earlier quotes. [/quote] Which likely came from someone else. A different poster probably said stop to the immature poster trying to start something with the humorless line.[/quote] Seems like you’re having trouble following. Maybe ask one of the “kids” from work for help. [/quote] Maybe I can help since I'm under 40. On this site many people make comments and you can't tell who said what. You think you are insulting a different poster than you are. Hope that helps. I know technology can be hard.[/quote] I was obviously referencing the earlier comment, which is why I used quote marks. Sorry reading is so tough for some. :lol: [/quote] You replied to a different comment so that ends up being what you reference in your reply. If you want to reply to the contempt comment, try scrolling to that one and replying there. Just like how I reply to your comment to explain how it works instead of some other comment. Do you understand now? I know it can be confusing.[/quote]
