> Since you’re back, I have a serious question for you (not a “gotcha!”) - how would you feel if someone asked you to change your thread title from, “When a beautiful woman starts at work… what have you seen?” to, “When an attractive person starts at work… what have you seen?” I know you can’t change it at this point, but is it something you would consider for the future? Do you see the difference that change would make?

Quite frankly, I like to stir the pot.

Yes, to be honest, I thought of making this more gender neutral but then I thought saying “beautiful woman” would be more fun. And since this quickly went to 3 pages of comments it seems to have worked. Plus people have tossed in the subject of men themselves which I figured would happen and it did.

You know, part of the problem today is we are so darn afraid of being open and honest so we feel we need to make everything all gender neutral and non threatening. Especially early on when people were attacking me for even daring to think people would notice and react to a beautiful woman.

Yes, you should not go crazy over someone or be weird but I think in our society people who are good looking know it and learn to deal with it.
