Actually, I generally do not take this to be an insult on the same level as some I've heard.

In fact, I've had boyfriends call me 'wench' in a playful moment.

I suppose context is everything.

Was that playful moment during a game of Monopoly?

Thank you for your understanding.

I figure "wench" would be about the best the thing you could be called as a woman in the middle ages for a commoner

Do you adopt the polytheism of Hinduism, or not? Are not Hindu gods something "to believe in"?

The Hindu Gods have their roles

Please don't think of me as a reincarnating,Vishnu fearing Hindu.

And as for the class system that surrounds Indian culture the brahman class should be ashamed... and yet they've done a job in a way.

It's funny, this business of gods. They always seem to have been around conveniently a few thousand years ago and for sure there is no god fixing out boo boos now. Don't you think it strange that hundreds of millions of people have died in wars and pogroms in the past 200 years and not a squeak from any of these alleged gods? So with that in mind, how many deaths will it take for some god to know too many people have died, to paraphrase Mr. Zimmerman?
