Sure, everything is context dependent. geek tragedy Feb 2013 #8

And the context of Sandra Fluke was Rush Limbaugh implying that sex is bad and evil and people- Warren DeMontague Feb 2013 #9

"menfolk" BainsBane Feb 2013 #94

If I went into HoF and started talking about "womenfolk", you think that would go over well? Warren DeMontague Feb 2013 #97

Yes, sir! BainsBane Feb 2013 #98

I know. I wonder how many shudders of ecstasy were felt when Iceland suggesting banning smut? Warren DeMontague Feb 2013 #87

"That ship has sailed" ... No, its still very much central to the agenda. Just downplayed, because Warren DeMontague Mar 2013 #123

"fat, ugly losers" ProudToBeBlueInRhody Feb 2013 #32

No, that's the kind of man who goes out and has to buy sex as if it's geek tragedy Feb 2013 #33

I suppose if I talked about male gigolos.... ProudToBeBlueInRhody Feb 2013 #34

Rush Limbaugh is the typical sex tourist. geek tragedy Feb 2013 #41

and here's another difference: Warren DeMontague Feb 2013 #20

So "vay-jay-jay" is okay with you? Bonobo Feb 2013 #22

Expressing physical revulsion towards a woman's sexual organs is so geek tragedy Feb 2013 #23

This isn't about misogyny or right wing men or people threatened by "feminist critique". Warren DeMontague Feb 2013 #53

Hell yes. nt Bonobo Feb 2013 #55

So, "pussy" and "bitch" and "cunt" are the grown-up words and feminists are being geek tragedy Feb 2013 #59

Yes, they are grown up words. Warren DeMontague Feb 2013 #64

"feminists"?? No... opiate69 Feb 2013 #67

So, if a male coworker complains about the 'cunts' and 'bitches' in geek tragedy Feb 2013 #72

Do let me know when DU starts putting us all on the payroll... opiate69 Feb 2013 #73

If Hootie was here today.. Upton Feb 2013 #120

I'd alert on him for his name reminding me vaguely of Hootie and the Blowfish Warren DeMontague Feb 2013 #121

All of those are known as objectionable words. caseymoz Mar 2013 #122
