I have often wondered why women get offended when a man calls them "love", I remember as a child once a man did this to a woman who was holding a door for him, he just said "thanks love" and she turned round and said "im not your love" and stormed off!!!
I thought this was rude and offensive...Im from the north of England where it is a term of affection and I think it's lovely so why would anyone be offended by this???
