Just go away!!!

I can't stand men who think they are right about everything. One good thing is that usually they will trip themselves up with something.

Tonight on a TBM message board I go to, there was a topic asking people what their hot button issues were. I should add this is a women's message board but men do occasionally post and this man's hot button issue was people with PhD's calling themselves doctor, as if trying to make it seem they were MDs. Since my dh has a PhD and in his professional life people refer to him as Dr. So I mentioned this and said something to the effect of my dh worked damn hard(well I said dang, trying to be respectful of their intense dislike for cussing) to earn his PhD and he could call himself Dr King of the universe if he wanted. I mentioned at one point that his PhD was inPharmacology. Well, he stood by his annoyance of this practice of someone other than an MD being called doctor. Fine, I don't really care. But he also was trying to explain to us silly women that someone with a PhD in Pharmacology would be called a Pharmacist. WRONG!!!!!!!! Pharmacy and Pharmacology are two different fields of study. You can get a PhD in Pharmacy but only then would you be called a Pharmacist. My dh is actually a Pharmacologist. So I called him on it. I tried to explain the difference but I am not sure how well I did. I might not ever know though, what he thought of me correcting him because the thread was locked before he could respond. I am a pretty laid back person but this really bugged me. Get your facts right before you try to explain to us wimmenfolk the ways of the world!! I hope he is feeling like an idiot right now. Probably not though.

Just had to get that off my chest!!
