ProTip:
Stop referring to women as "chics" --
I don't get it, new users get CRUCIFIED when calling women by anything that resembles this kind of slang.
First time I read one of your weird one-line "looking for reaction" posts I figured it was a fluke, but you do it all the time.
It is a classless way to refer to women. I recommend you add some tact to your posts, especially if you want to continue these 4-5/a week one-line attempts for attention.

When someone interprets something as derogatory almost anything that is said
about him (or about groups with whom he identifies) it's conclude that
he has inferiority feelings or low self-esteem. This tendency is
pronounced among minority rights advocates, whether or not they belong
to the minority groups whose rights they defend. They are
hypersensitive about the words used to designate minorities. The terms
"negro," "oriental," "handicapped" or "chick" for an African, an
Asian, a disabled person or a woman originally had no derogatory
connotation. "Broad" and "chick" were merely the feminine equivalents
of "guy," "dude" or "fellow." The negative connotations have been
attached to these terms by the activists themselves. Some animal
rights advocates have gone so far as to reject the word "pet" and
insist on its replacement by "animal companion." Leftist
anthropologists go to great lengths to avoid saying anything about
primitive peoples that could conceivably be interpreted as negative.
They want to replace the word "primitive" by "nonliterate." They seem
almost paranoid about anything that might suggest that any primitive
culture is inferior to their own.
I personally don't care what terms people use as blanket terms for gender, you'll see from my post history I have never been one to jump on the bandwagon and lambaste newbies for calling women "girls." I just find it really hypocritical since the posts by the OP almost never contain anything of real substance and use terminology that would have newbies run out of town.
