[Closed] 'Bird'. Offensive and derogatory... or not?

Faster Pussycat, Drill! Drill!
Hammer & Nail Varnish

are the two that stand out. A name other than 'Mrs Jone's handywoman' is memorable - in an age of google it's something that will work on the side of a van and get someone to search for it.

Katie's a female furniture restorer - most of the industry is male, yet a lot of the clients are female. Many are fed up with having being patronised in the past so there's a benefit in making clear your differentiation.

I don't like the name. I can see the attraction but I would prefer simply her name and a short description of what she does. "Janes repair and maintenance services"

Second poster provides an opinion.

Third poster criticising first poster for providing an opinion.

Forth poster criticises third poster for being critical.

Opinions?

So it's not entirely surprising that "a patronising bloke on a biking forum" has given his, well, [i]opinion[/i].

EDIT : I hadn't read Cougar's post above ^

No More Males - bravo

FMinine? FMinate?
