Why can't we just say ladies ?

[robert30]

Hello I am new so please excuse any ignorance on my part.

Why do men have to be so derogatory when talking about ladies, ladies are ladies and they are to be respected the same way men are, imagine women talking about men in this way......it's not good be compared too as sex objects.

I am new as already stated above, I am kind and respectful but also worried in case I offend any ladies on this forum, I do not have much knowledge on the topic concerned so always willing to read and listen.

Thank you for reading my message,
God bless,
Robert
