Concerning Fairness
This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by NYC_SKP (a host of the Barack Obama group).
vs hypocrisy... er, uh, oh hell I don't know what else to call it.
What would you do if a lot of us little old ladies complained about the Anglo-Saxon term for coitus? Tell us to fuck off?
You're bowing to a noisy segment of people who want to swear like a sailor - OOPS! 'use colorful language' - but feel superior to someone using a term THEY don't like. And I totally disagree that most women/feminists find it offensive. We use it quite a bit among ourselves, largely toward rightwingers, and you have an awful lot of those in here posing as progressives. But oh, my stars and garters, we must be PC to McCarthyites, mustn't we?
