170. I think you are right.
I still learned it here, and saw it here first. And the people who insulted me for my reply to this thread have their own problems with stereotypes and anger. They need to get a grip.

I am not the devil for trying to track down the origins of a slur, for making observations about it and for noticing that some of my fellow DUers were very free about using the term.

I also remember a time here when quite a few here were calling Ann Coulter a c*nt. I am glad that word was banned from the discourse here. Annie is pretty much irrelevant these days. But calling her a sexist name was never right.
