Gee, if it took out Dispensationalism, I'd almost be willing to reevaluate my view. And Dominonism, too, while we're at it.
As long as it covers both Dunkers and Sprinklers, I should be covered.

Absolutely
Ask women on the streets of NYC what happens when a man approaches her with a, "you look delicious today young lady" and the woman doesn't respond.
The utter hated of the woman is palpable.
Or as a local newsman used to say, "Let's go to the videotape!"

Maybe he liked you?"Smile sweetie/honey/darling/cutie! You're so beautiful when you smile! Smile for me."
if I had a dollar for everytime I heard that one I wouldn't have a car payment. <sarcasm> But, you know, it could be worse, they could be vulgar. At least they want me to look pretty for them. I should be greatful, right?</sarcasm>
"May come down to a choice"??? I've voted in every Presidential election since I was old enough to do so--that's nine elections so far--and I can honestly say that I've never voted for the candidate who I thought would be the better person for the job. But in every one of those elections, I did vote for the person who I thought would be the lesser of two evils and cause the least amount of damage....Voting is often like being on a jury...and it may come down to a choice of the lesser of the 2 evils...
One of the special features on the Fury Blu-Ray is about four men who were brought in as advisors because they each served as part of a U.S. tank crew in Germany during World War II. At one point during the feature, one of the actors commented that they had heard stories that these four men had never even told their own families. I've never been in the military, but I'm certain re-living the horrors of war can't be a pleasant thing to do....I watch Fury, and I understand why my father, grandfathers, and everybody else I know that served don't like talking about the battles...

That's what you end up with in a two-party system. Sure, you'll see third-party candidates on the ballot, and one of them might appeal to you, but deep in the back of your head you hear that little voice saying "he's just a spoiiiiiiiiiiiiiiler. Don't throw your vote awayyyyyyyyyyyy!"
So you choose between Comic Sans Bold or Comic Sans Light, and walk away from the polls muttering "yahhh, they're all the same anyway." If that's what The Founders, may their names be blessed, had in mind, I think they really needed to go outside for a bit and take a break until their heads cleared.
In Britspeak, 'love' has become a generic term when addressing a woman. A man will get called Sir, but Ma'am or Madam seems to have disappeared. Shame we don't soften madam to the French, madame. but that's not my point."Smile sweetie/honey/darling/cutie! You're so beautiful when you smile! Smile for me."
I had a plumber call me "little lady" the other day. I am six inches taller than he is.
No, they want a response. If they wanted to be friends with me, date me, sleep with me, etc. they would put a little more effort in than yelling at me in public in front of their friends.
Perhaps this is a lesson that some men need to be taught: if you like a woman and want to strike up a friendship, start having sex with her, date her, etc. the way to start that relationship is NOT TO scream "smile baby!," "work it baby!," or "you're pretty baby!" from across the street. Cross the street, introduce yourself, etc. Don't yell "compliments" about her body (even her pretty face) in an attempt to make her blush just to look like you own the street in front of your friends.
I can tell you, no woman in her right mind is going to go home with a man who yells at her out on the street. Save that kind of talk (including vulgar talk) for private times once you have established she's into you.
I can't imaging a woman in her right mind wanting to end up with something like this, even back in the day:

For the record: Cagney never said this, in character or in real life. It's an ongoing joke between one of my best friends and lodge brother, and our wives. We both married educated and ambitious women: his wife is currently in grad school, mine has two masters, and they both tolerate (sometimes, barely) their husbands' humor. The idea was to come up with "an old time movie actor" who'd come up with an obnoxious, sexist, patronizing spiel. It came down to Bogart and Cagney, and we decided that the women that Bogie attracted in his films were too sophisticated to fall for it.
The only thing that could make this funnier is if his wife is played by Blanche Payson.
With the Props Department providing the sufficient number of rolling pins, of course.
