    I guess so. I don't think he should be called racist or sexist, though.

    Just one of the 'oops' moments.

    Odon... well, regardless of the racist/sexist thing... it's unprofessional.

    It's like a doctor writing "junkie" or "crackhead" on a patients chart instead of the technical medical terms..

    You are right. I can see it is unprofessional. But she seems to be taking a multi-pronged offence to this. Unprofessional, perhaps. Nothing more. He has apologised. I'd have drawn a line underneath it at that.

    Isn't that, like, totally racist?
    I wasn't going to be as cynical as that, but, yeah, I agree. I can see her taking it overly seriously for some cash. Kerching.

    I was about to say something really mean about another member here, but I'm holding my tongue.

    No, not even for rep points. ;)

    I weigh 200+ and run.. I'm not fat though.

    And I can see where you are coming from, but running is bad for the body no matter what kind of shape you are in. Long distance running that is.

    I thought you was making a racial slur or something. Like totally disrespecting and condescending coloured women.

    i was 38 and over 200lbs and all the guys on my shift were all racing each other. everyone else on the shift was between 20-25 except dale who was 45 and none of them where fat.
    i beat them all in every race until the skinny 18 year old black kid came out of the lab, he only beat me by a couple inches.

    its fun to stereotype but fat dosent equal unable to run.

    Something about PR threads. They seem to have a way of conjuring up elements of sexism, racism, 'classism', 'ethnicism', etc, in people and the thread goes on page after page after page.

    It's the type of element that the mainstream media uses so well to its advantage.

    I don't say any of this to be insulting to anyone.
