And make the Treasurer resignation publicly at a meeting so the other members know about the President's treatment to volunteers willing to help. Most clubs have a problem getting volunteers, maybe this nonsense is why your club may be having even fewer than the typical 10-20% clubs typically get.

Geeze. I would have used that line (or "lady" ), or guy/gentleman if it was a he, "person" if I didn't know the gender.
That's just crazy.

Personally, having spent quite a bit of time in the South during my USAF career, I find that "y'all" and "all y'all" works in almost every situation ... usually because the overly pc folks are trying to figure out (a) what it means and (b) what is offensive about it.

Y'all is singular, all y'all is plural. ;)

Once years ago, I was in a restaurant and told the waitress that I was ordering off the "Old fart's" menu because I didn't know if I was entitled to be called "Honored". The waitress smiled and took my order.

Both are redundant if you un-contract them. Quaint, very regional, but redundant.

Tell your President to take 2 tranquilizers and call you in the morning!
As Board member of a voluntary organization, I'd tell the female person you believed you were due an apology. If she disagreed, I'd tell her to enjoy being treasurer.

Impressionist and Remus, you hit the nail on the head. I was about to make comment but you said it for me. Now I'm most anxious to see the results. Will gloryg act on this wise advice, and what will the outcome be? Smilin' Geo.

I'd tell that club president to get over herself! And probably, to get a life. In my ever-so-humble opinion (not really), people who take offense so easily don't have a lot going on upstairs to think about.

yes, pc is annoying, especially when over something petty such as this... another thing that is annoying is when an op gets 5 pages of responses and is never heard from again... :thumbdown:
