A funny

Not nice to giggle over non-native English, but this one is too precious not to share:

"In history, the difference of social status make the words for women have negative connotations. Eg. To call a man a professional is a compliment; but to call a woman professional is perhaps to be a prostate."

Charming. A couple of my favourites are:
"I have a terrible over-hang."
"I must get this out of my chest!"
