No one who (even cyber) knows you could think that you're judgemental, or for that matter, anything less than a lady. You've got strong sense of justice and injustice, and you get angry when you see those you perceive as being weaker being trampled upon. That's the recurring thread I've noted in your posts on this board over the years we've been acquainted.

You gathered that from a conversation with a lady I liked and never should have even had that conversation 'with her'? I doubt anyone of us are perfect and even decades later I have realized I should not have said anything.

Yeah, when coupled with a pronoun it can.

Rambo,
In the U.S. we call some such TV programs "sit-coms", a compound contraction for "situation comedy".
We call Fawlty Towers & The Fall & Rise of Reginald Perin (possibly before your time) "Brit-coms". We Americans are quite clever.

I think of the term "judgmental" as meaning prone to pass value judgments, & or moral judgments on others.
I haven't noticed Grace at that much.
I'd characterize her as "discerning". I think she's got good taste.
But I haven't noticed her passing judgment on others that post here.
