Well, you, LH, and Ginger all said it--with you saying MANY people have pointed out his misogynist posts. Terms like "misogynist" and "racist" shouldn't be used lightly, but there are. In my day the term basically meant "sexist pig", but it was used sparingly and the target was generally a "sexist pig." smile

Then again, Tom's most recent post was quite combative, so maybe I should go back into hiding. smile I get that he may feel people are piling on though.

I hope we can all learn from each other's point of view though. Like LH said, we all live and learn.
