I'm not saying that she should feel bad or apologize - I am just pointing out that there is a broad difference in values that brought several people from other cultures to feel personally insulted by what she said, and I was unsure if that was her actual intention - I don't think so. I am just trying to bring some element of rational analysis to an emotionally overloaded discussion, to let each person understand the reasons of the others. I can't force anyone to respect anyone else (both ways) though :-)
