Has that been generally agreed upon here? Just curious." Agressive people are by definition DEMANDING. They demand that something be done THIS way or that you go to THAT restaurant. In short they try and force their will on others. I do not find agressive people pleasant. ASSERTIVE people on the other hand freely EXPRESS their opinions and desires but do not try to force them onto others. -- Mark ...{decvax,ucbvax}!decwrl!qubix!msc ...{ittvax,amd70}!qubix!msc decwrl!qubix!msc@Berkeley.ARPA
