I was supposed to meet some bankers in Geneva, and I arrived earlier than them.

A very beautiful young lady took me to the meeting room, and asked if I would like to have a coffee.

I said yes please.

She left and came back with the coffee, a plate with cookies and some Swiss chocolates.

I said “thank you very much. This is very kind of you. I would like to say more, but I am reluctant in today’s atmosphere of political correctness”

The smile disappeared off her face, and she said “is something wrong?”

I said “no nothing wrong, but I was going to say you really are a very beautiful young lady, but wasn’t sure what your reaction would be”

A beaming smile came back to her face, and she said “you can tell me that as many times as you like! I do not like political correctness either!”

The gentlI was waiting for arrived, and learnt of what happened.

One, a very promenant figure in the banking business, said “ I would never dare say that!”

Saeed, what do you think her reaction would have been if the copy boy in the same office had said that to her?

The customer is always right.

Reminds me of another joke:

A crusty old man walks into a bank and says to the teller at the window, "I want to open a damn checking account."

To which the astonished woman replies, "I beg your pardon, sir; I must have misunderstood you. What did you say?"

"Listen up bitch! I said, I want to open a damn checking account! Right now!"

"I'm very sorry sir, but we do not tolerate that kind of language in this bank."

Having said this, the teller leaves the window and goes over to the bank manager to tell him about her problem customer.

They both return and the manager asks the old geezer, "What seems to be the problem here?"

"There's no damn problem, sonny," the elderly man says, "I just won 50 million bucks in the damn lottery and I want to open a damn checking account in this damn bank!"

"I see," says the manager thoughtfully, "And you're saying that this bitch here is giving you a hard time?"

I've told this story before but here goes again. My Uncle Woodrow had a ranch in the panhandle + oil rigs paid for everything,so he had a lot of time to deal with his cattle + just generally Fxxxoff. Every year he would buy a new Cadillac convertible,have it painted pink (ala HUD)+ drive around the pastures sitting on the seat backs,steering with his foot,with a staff to press the gas pedal.He just rode around shooting jack rabbits.Cut to the quick. One day he went into the Caddy dealership to buy a new car. They had been cutting calves all morning so you know he smelled rank. He tells this hoity toity salesman that he wants that car over there + he wants it painted pink + ready for pick up that afternoon.The salesman did the nose in the air routine + old him to get out,so Woodrow did. The dealership owner saw him leaving in a huff + came out to see what the problem was.Did'nt take long + the result was that Woodrow got his painted Caddy on time,junior lost his job + hopefully took the knowledge with him not to judge a man on his appearance.

O.K. one more. The source of the P.C. term.In August 1945 Macarther was to accept the jap surrender in Tokyo harbor.Doug contacted Truman + said that the little yellow bastards would be here soon;to which Harry replied,that term is not very political correct;to which Doug replied "The term of political correctness is the belief that a turd can be picked up by the clean end."

Saeed, I salute you. Used to be if you told a woman she was beautiful, she took it as intended -- a compliment. These days, many women are offended and take the position that you are not taking them seriously as a professional. I ask myself, if that's the way they feel, why the makeup and hair?
Also, would a man take offense if a woman commented positively on his appearance? Would you feel like she wasn't taking you seriously? Face it, we'll never understand them.

Political correctness is a tool of the Devil. And yes, if a woman doesn't want to be complimented, then she should never wear perfume, deodorant or make up, let her hair go, forget feminine hygiene, and purposely not shave her legs or armpits. Between the hairy legs/armpits, plain face and the overwhelming B.O. she'd have it made because NO ONE would ever come close enough to even think about offering her a genuine compliment. Oh, and did I mention not brushing her teeth or gargling with mouthwash?

P.C.= Mind Control.Think About That.

Screw PC. Let the cripples crawl.

I do agree,however it is relative as I remember in the mid 70's the bumper sticker that was prevalent here that said,"Texas oil for Texans only;let the yankee bastards freeze in the dark".
