Jewel
My most sincere apologies to all I offended with my lack of tact and lack of political correctness in describing what made me uncomfortable with the Maiden. I meant no offense either to those with down syndrome or anyone else. If you read the entirety of the original post (on page one of this thread) you will see that I actually love the Maiden card. Thank you for bringing my poor choice of words to my attention. I do not work in the field and my choice of words was an ignorant one not one meant to be demeaning. I stand corrected. Too bad that the one word alone took out the true value of the post and the point I made that I was "really stretching it" to find someting negative about the card. Goes to show the power of a word.
p.s. to ensure no one else gets offended I have deleted the portion of my post that offended you.
