I totally agree, this type of comment is extremely sexist and embarassing to Piggington’s.
I, the wife, am the one that has been ultra-conservation about buying in the current market.
Don’t get upset sweetie, just calm down and be quiet (tongue-in-cheek AND ducking)
Seriously, this is foolishness. One female colleague of mine has been investing in RE for about 20yrs. She can buy&sell most of us now and only works for fun. Somehow I doubt she was overly emotional during her business dealings. Another (female) relative is on wallstreet and handles bond issues for multi-billion corporate ventures–like starting new semiconductor plants in Vietnam. I do recall her being emotional just after the birth of her first son, and throwing a hysterical fit when we couldn’t locate her husband during 9/11–so I guess that is emotional. But cross her in business and she’ll set your stones in a vice. I won’t even play Monopoly with her. ;^)
