Quick question for Aussies from an American?

the over use of the term Sheila in a derrogatory way by mainly male neanderthals has given the term its negative sense.

though now not in use in common australian english there are still a few died-in-the-wool old farmer blokes who will proudly declare the love of his life is a "Bonza little Sheila" and mean it in a pleasant way.

My partner calls me both sheila and b**ch and I am okay with him calling me that as I understand his use of the word.....

but should any other man call me either I'd be very offended.

The words icing and frosting are used interchangeably right here. Technically, icing is cooked, then cooled and utilized, while frosting is greater like a sweetened whipped cream. we've a sort of shortenings made out of oils - a uncomplicated and enormously-usual kind is Crisco. It has the actual characteristics of lard, yet is organic white in coloration - and in contrast to lard, won't immediately circulate undesirable. And sure, there are older recipes that decision for lard in cookies, short-breads and sweetbreads. Few human beings use those recipes from now on; a number of them date back 3 hundred years. i'm an amateur historian, focusing on us of a's Civil warfare - and function certainly got here upon and made a number of those previous cookie recipes. They have been exceedingly tasty! ...yet too darn plenty artwork to make different than for coaching purposes.

I think it must be personal preference. We Aussies use a lot of slang and are often a bit thick-skinned about name calling.

A sheila can mean a skanky ho in some circles

because sheila is an old fashioned name

Just kidding I think it is because if someone called me a sheila it's like that i'm just a dumb woman only good for one thing

why call her a sheila? you're not aussie, dont try to imitate them.

HMMMM, interesting.

Does anyone have an answer to that question???

I would like to know what is the difference.
