 As a woman, I find absolutely nothing in the title or comments from the OP offensive.

I can't even remember the par I had earlier today on #1

Making a par on the first hole is cheating😆.

The problem with the first hole is everyone watching you tee off.

The problem with the other holes is I stink at golf.

One of the most nervous moments of my life was teeing off on #1 at the Old Course (St Andrews).

Not when you take 2 mulligans on the 1st tee, move the ball away from a tree , and take a gimmee on a 4ft downhill ,sidehill , putt !!!!

It's also not cheating when you meet someone on a cruise and tell them you have a 4 hcp after they tell you they have a 6.

We had a female pilot (trainee) on a lifeboat tender on our Alaskan port stop...on the tender back she slammed into Quantum pretty hard and and the guy had to take over to dock... just saying 😉 

 

Just saying What??? So much for none of this is sexist.

You can say all you want if/when a female captain, tender pilot, does something well, and that’s o.k. Someone else points out something not so well, and that’s sexist? What’s the difference?

If I have to explain it, I’m afraid a sexist wouldn’t understand…..but I’m sure no one here is one.

Ok, I’ll give it a go……

 

First, making sexist or racist post/comment/joke doesnt mean the person who did such Is a sexist/racist, it is an observation about the post or whatever. 

 

Second, there was No reason to even mention that some ‘woman’ made an error in controlling their craft and that a ‘guy’ had to take over, except to appear they were bothered by someone posting how a woman was doing something different from what they expect, and they had to point out ‘women’ made mistakes and in their post, a ‘man’ fixed it……that to me is a sexist post.

 

And by the way, being impressed they was a woman at the helm of a small boat 20+ years into the 21Cent is a bet odd too, but what the heck. 

 

I have 3 very accomplished daughters, a wife with outstanding abilities, and sisters who are a cut above….but I see their accomplishments as what individuals can do, but at the same time well aware of how we have changed since ‘The Good Old Days’.

It’s not clue in text, but I was posting tongue in check.

 

I’m quite bemused by the surprise of a female tender operator when the cruise industry’s most famous captain is also a woman on Celebrity!
