I don't think so. I don't know about you, but I don't go around
approaching strangers so I can comment about their breasts. However, during
the course of many conversations with female friends and associates over the
years, some of them have used the word "tits" and so have I in response.
Clearly, since the women led off with the use of that word, they obviously
were not offended by my use of it in response. Clearly, at lot of this
depends on the situation. With a stranger, if the subject even came up, only
the most polite words would be used. With a friend, more casual conversation
is acceptable. In my opinion, the woman always decides when that point is
reached.

Dwight:

I have many female friends and acquaintences, and I almost never hear
the word "tits" used to describe their breasts. "Boobs," yes, occasionally,
but not the "t" word. I digress; this is about Kim, the reason why she
requested her call sign, and the unfavorable image it projects on others
who are, or may be, involved in the ARS. As a woman who presumes to be
taken seriously as an intelligent, competent woman of the modern era, she
is, in actuality, setting herself and all other women back to the time
when they were mere objects of prurient interest. Or could it be that
she really wants to be seen that way? Unfortunately, the image is
objectionable in any context, and it's effect on the ARS has the potential
to be exactly as Mr. Hollingsworth predicted.

gee, and all this time I thought she took that callsign because TIT was
simple to send and had a nice rhythm in morse.

I'd hate to think what kind of sex oriented twist some folks might
place on my callsign and it's the original assigned to me by the FCC.

No problem or disappointment, my own obsessions don't run that way either.
but there are probably other minds out there that might react with a titter
(no pun intended) to a simple alpha-numeric identifier.

Are you kidding? I doubt she can even send Morse.

You don't have to send - just copy.

So how are you going to converse with another Morse station, assuming
you are in the CW portion of the band, if you don't send? Reread the
post, it was talking about sending.

All of the portions of the band are CW portions.

post, it was talking about sending.

This purpose of this group is Morse Code testing. The exam is receive only.

True, one can operate CW in any portion of the band, but if you are in
the phone band, you can answer a CW station on phone, you don't have to
answer in CW as opposed to if you are in the portion of the band where
one can not use phone, ie., must use CW, thus the "CW" portion of the
band, you must answer in CW.

It is? Since when? That topic is often discussed but just where does it
state the purpose of the group is Morse testing?

The exam is receive only.

So what good is being able to receive Morse if you can't send it? You
must be one of the cbplussers ULX speaks frequently of. And I still
stand behind my statement that kim probably can't send CW, or bet she
can't copy it either.
