People might not be offended by other asking for changes to what they
feel as personal work for public use. Publicity implies debate at
least.
What is demeaning is having always the same examples.
It's not diminishing sexism in any way, on the contrary, sexism is a

these lessons seem pretty and interesting, but i'd like to make few comments.
Unfortunately, the authors have not avoided the use of stereotypical
example, i don't blame them for that since it might be unconcious,
buit it must be corrected.

Hello,
i cannot find the translation for the metaphorical 'poor', ie in the

hello everybody,
i made a bit of research and i didn't find what i wanted.
So this list may be the right place to ask the following.
How do we do the basic greetings ?
i mean something like :
"hello, my name is rolf. How do you do?"
or
"how are you ?"
etc.
Is there a reference for that ?
