I had a very condescending boss once who told me that if I got upset with him, he didn't want me to "go 'round pouting like the other ladies" he had worked with had. I assured him that there would be no question as to whether I was mad should I ever get mad. I should have walked out then but I really wanted the job. I eventually quit, being unable to take his talking down to me any more.

As for girl, chick etc...those terms do not offend me but I prefer to be referred to as a woman should a description be necessary.
