I would personally be very pleased to see misogynistic slurs like the c word and the one that is used by dog breeders to refer to the female of that species be banned at DU as I don't think they serve any legitimate purpose here.

I'm putting this in a separate comment, because I voiced a similar entiment here once before and got "rewarded" by having my post hidden for "interfering with forum moderation." If someone alerts on this comment and it gets hidden, hopefully the previous one will be allowed to remain.
