said, she felt so offended when obama called michelle "sweetie". then the
other dama talked about how some other girl in her office called her "
sweetie", and she literally called her to back off.
so what is wrong to call someone "sweetie"? |

There is nothing wrong about the word. Some Chinese people feel
uncomfortable with it probably because they are translating it directly into
