There are some cases where it sounds a little clunky, but we don't have other words for this use case that enjoy wider common usage. I am glad that at least one person can express a point of view and be poli= te about it at the same time. If you think it is fine, then it is your right to us= e it. I find it confusing and clunky in most cases, and I refuse to use it. I = also reserve the right, when others advocate its use, to present my own point of= view. If anyone chooses to interpret that as rude, sexist, intolerant or whatev= er - then that is their problem and not mine. They will have to get over it. J' --=20 Avoid eavesdropping.
