It's a personal preference (are we still allowed those?).

Yes, you like women to be 'ladylike'.

 

What does ladylike actually mean, to you? (Without resorting to gender stereotypes, obviously)

I already tried to answer this but it was removed for some reason.

 

To put it another way, ladylike is in itself a stereotype, and that's a personal preference that I'm perfectly entitled to. Thank you.

Why then did you use that personal preference as a response to the poster?

 

The response appeared to be a criticism of the poster because she didn't fit your stereotype of what a woman should be.

Not at all. The poster said she swears a lot, I said that wasn't very ladylike. That could be taken as a criticism or a compliment. It was actually just  an observation. I later responded to you about being entitled to a personal opinion/ preference. Which I am.

Okay, bearing in mind your strange response to a poster based on your stereotypical personal preference of what a woman should be, eg not swearing.

 

How would what you said be seen as a compliment?

Oh Snailyboy, I do love your little tests.

 

Why would she see it as a compliment? Well if she wears swearing as a badge of honour, then someone like me saying it's not very ladylike may be taken as a compliment. Alternatively it could just be taken as an observational contribution on the thread topic.

Absolutely bizarre.

It’s not really a term I would use - but you pretending you don’t understand the meaning of words is more bizarre.

 

could you define the term “lady-like” ?
