I went to school one day last year and Mrs Moro grounded me from recess because a kid reported me saying "pussy." The problem is that I don't know that as a bad word. I was only talking about our neighbor Ms Karen's new cat. It is called a pussycat. But my teacher taught I was talking about a bad word used by grownups to depict the private part of a woman.What about Dick? My mom calls a friend of ours Dick and she says it's short for Richard as Bill is short for William. how is that? If she says Dick, can I call my friend Richard Dick too?
Life is not fair! Why ask why?
