Oprah endorses Hillary Clinton: 'It’s a seminal moment for women'

62. I don't think you get my point

I have been an unwavering Hillary supporter through the whole primary process. I just find it odd that we're talking of a 'seminal moment for women' when seminal is by definition a biologically masculine term - and just because semen is 4th in the list of definitions doesn't alter that, because all the other meanings are pendant on the metaphor of biological conception. It's a fundamentally sexist adjective and one that I've been working to phase out of my vocabulary for much the same reasons I avoid referring to over-excited people as 'hysterical.'
