I wouldn't have cared one single bit because you would have been commenting about the incompetence of an individual; whether he is a man or a woman is not the issue. I would have been able to deduce that fairly easily.

It is degrading for us because we are women and it is offensive to us on that count.

It is a useful strategy for him because he is a man and this is one of the arsenal in his line of defense whenever he encounters (non-mehram) women in the real-world.

We'll continue to be offended and he'll continue to deploy his weapons.

So lets say these Sisters go to their car fixed and a "man" gives awful service and they describe his incomptency in their words. Do they expect every man from Earth to Russain space station to get offended?

The comment runs parallel to a dumb blonde joke - not saying it is, just saying it resembles one. There are similar 'jokes' about all sorts of physical appearances, nationalities, faiths. Best to stay away from them. But... the women's issue thing, it sort of falls back on what Malcolm X said so beautifully (in his case, it was about the Afro-American human being), masha'Allah:

Quote:
I am a Muslim and . . . my religion makes me be against all forms of racism. It keeps me from judging any man by the color of his skin. It teaches me to judge him by his deeds and his conscious behavior. And it teaches me to be for the rights of all human beings, but especially the Afro-American human being, because my religion is a natural religion, and the first law of nature is self-preservation.


(See thread for more quotes from Malcolm X)

All said and done, it hasn't bothered me. Just here to support my sister Taalibah insha'Allah and explain why it is offensive to women in general.

I don't even know what to say!

Nevertheless Aapa Taalibah is a person of knowledge so I apologise and seek forgiveness.You can call me whatever you want x 10 in return, Insha'Allah.

It isn't the gender so much as it is the combination of her gender with the only physical description you've provided: that she is blonde.

You could say thank you.

Brother, you talk about poor customer service but here I spent time providing an explanation, a peek into the female thought process (ironically through the words of a man)... the least you could say is 'thank you.' Khayr, insha'Allah it was of some benefit and all benefit is from Allah Ta'aala. Alhamdulillah.

You're welcome.

(Disclaimer: don't worry, I'm not offended.)

Well brother muadh, seems like our understanding and use of the English language is on different levels.

Brother I'm not here to disrespect you or call you names, I'm just an ordinary layperson, but some topics irrate me, at no fault of yourself or anyone elses....like I said our level of usage of the English language is at different levels. What you deem as fine would be very far from being ok in my standards.
