Fair enough, I'm surely being overly sensitive here. It's just that, here in Sweden at least, being 'lactose intolerant' suggests there is something wrong with you, when the truth in fact is just that your lactase persistence[1] is more akin to that of the rest of the world. It carries connotations here. I'd say it does in the US as well, given the jokes about it I've seen on shows like the Big Bang Theory. [1]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactase_persistence |
