Alpo Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 It's men and women, guys and gals, boys and girls. Male first. But it's ladies and gentlemen. Female first. And not just in English. Mine a diamond with heroin (damn otto is an idiot) meine Damen und Herren (print it the way I wrote it this time) German damas y caballeros Spanish At first I was wondering if women got annoyed because it was always men first, and then I remembered "ladies and gentlemen" which put the women first.

Eyesa Horg Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 They're changing it all here in Vermont's education system according to the news! If born male, you are a "person". If born female, you are a "person that produces eggs" You gotta love it. What the hell??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tennessee Trapper Tom Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Alpo . The original greeting was. Lords and, Ladies. But because Nobilty wanted to be recognized above Commoners. The greeting was changed to. Lords, Ladies and Gentlemen. Then when Class separation fell out of way it was shortened to Ladies and Gentlemen.

watab kid Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 anymore i would love to think it could just be about ladies and gentlemen or men and women - just that simple [it is in my world] and i accept it either way , but ....i can no longer even keep track of all the BS related to this discussion on a daily basis , but i like the fact that im associated with a bunch of folks here that still define things in real terms and only discuss who gets first billing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
