103. "Grow a pair"
can be applied to both genders. You know that, right? In this case it just happened to be applied to a male.

But yes. After 40 years of feminist activism, I'm a sexist misogynist because YOU disagree with my terminology. Are we beginning to see how silly that is?

Back to the OP to which I responded. The point, of course, was to suggest that JFK had courage, or "grow a pair" if you will, to take action that was best for the people while facing significant opposition from the PTB. For example, he ignored the Hawks during the CMC who were advocating nuking Cuba. Would Obama have the same courage? I don't believe so.
