Well, ARE they?
FOUND by Liz
in Los Angeles, California
This was found near a wastebasket at my doctor's office. It appears to be the continuation of a discussion. And who are "they," anyway?

I would always like to be treated diffenetly than men. I think that's a raisinble request.
Bartender?!
Yes ...Yes they are
Why ? Do you have a problem wuith this ?
Some of my girlfriends claim that they never ever get speeding tickets even though they get pulled over. (I never speed, so I can't help ya out with personal anecdotes.)
My last doctor visit, I insisted on being treated like the women; somebody has to make a stand for equality!
That "specula" thing was way weirder than I was prepared for, though; next time, I'll be goin' back to the guy thing.
@ Night... Ditto!!
what more can I say?
well, here's the thing, Liz. (can i call you Liz?)... We are diffenent than men. And i kinda like it that way.
who is "they"?
if you don't know who 'they' are, i'm not telling you.
Duh!
i'd rather be treated equally to men all the time rather than having unulled parking tickets thrown at me like sweeties to distract me from the huge glass ceiling looming over my head.
Biophysiological differences aside, women are no less able or valid than men. And vice versa. And both should be paid equally for equal work. The glass cieling exists, but apparently only women can see it. And feel it, when they bump into it.
In my experience, "they" usually turns out to be "the Man, bringing you down".
You bet your bra they're treating men differently than women!
Sometimes that's a great thing - sometimes it's not at all.
That looks like one of the thousands of creative spellings of "definitely" that I see on the Internet on a daily basis.I definatly don't know why, but that definetly seems to be the most commonly misspelled word in the English language. I defenitly hope more people will learn to spell it right. As Ray Babbitt would say: Yeah, depheanittelie K-Mart.
flargy, i believe that word is differently.
I don't know about women being treated differently than men,but I do know that bears always receive different treatment! (I wonder if it's the extra sharp teeth and long sharp claws?)
@ what's cookin in the kitchen...Yes--aka the patriarchy!
/feminist rant
Gloria in excelsis deo: do I know you?
My question was the same as Messy Girl's: Who are "they?"
Depending on who "they" are, then the question can be answered.
I would say yes, in some contexts, like when I use the men's room in an emergency pit stop because the women's potty is being used...yes, for sure, I am treated differently by "they" (the men), who react interestingly when 'they' see my come out of their potty.
What kind of doctor was it, Liz??
In most situations, I like being treated differently than men, because I'm not a man.
But since this was found in a doctor's office, I'm assuming "they" is the medical establishment. "They" notoriously under-treat women,(I don't know why so I'll stick with the reason I've heard the most, they just don't take womens' complaints seriously) I've experienced it and it has lead to me to a real dislike and distrust of doctors.
I know that *I'm* treating them differently. Trust me, the payoff's worth it.
Mona,
I know. That's part of what makes this so absurd. The sixth letter of that word is an "n," not an "r." If it was an "r," it would look like a "v" (see the "r" in "treating").
I guess I'm treating this person diffenetly because of his/her awful spelling and penmanship.
Dentist: no
Gynecologist: I should certainly hope so.
Plastic Surgeon: n/a.
@ CuriousKat: I'm new here, so I don't know anyone
It's different TO or different FROM, not different THAN, however you spell it.
But I fear this is a lost cause, aince there's no one left in England who can speak the language properly, and you guys have always done things differently, er, than us.
My guess is two ladies in the doctor's waiting room wondering why all the men are getting called in first.
Hi Gloria,come on in!
Welcome, Gloria.
I asked if I knew you really as a joke because of your comment about women you know getting pulled over without being ticketed.
I seem to have experienced that situation a couple of dozen times myself. And I meet the nicest policeman along the way.
I think "yes" is the answer.
Thanks for welcoming me!
the only times i've not gotten a ticket when i've been pulled over, is when i was driving a government car. Just a lecture."you know, ma'am, when you drive a government vehicle, you serve as an example to other drivers." Even with my batting eyes, and cleavage, its still 'here you go, 20 over the limit you were going.'
No. Everyone is treated the same. We're all equal here. Now, turn your head and cough, then bend over for your prostate exam, and then hop up on the table and spread 'em so I can get that Pap smear.
Eva, you said it exactly.
I think men would get more benefit from a glass ceiling. That way they could look up the skirts of the women the next floor up. I would not mind looking at men a floor up but it wouldn't do much good since they're wearing pants and a man in a skirt just wouldn't be the same......maybe if the men upstairs wore kilts.....
To whoever wrote this, duh!, dumbass
I think he/she meant to write "Are they treating women definitely than men?"
thats interesting....
