Reply #5: ..How do women/minorities feel about sexist/racist phrases on DU? [View All]

[martinolich]

..To be honest I'd rather ask them how they feel about a really demeaning phrase which keeps appearing on this site,..currently demeaning women, but not long ago demeaned Blacks.....The phrase being _____ is Bush's "Bitch"...I saw it the other day regarding Tony Blair and now using John McCain...I'm not, by the way, defending those individuals....I AM opposed to this ugly phrase which is virulently demeaning...currently, as mentioned, to Women...But in the past (before it became "safer" to shit on women rather than minorities?)..I've heard it as "..is/is not.."your nigger"
..Both flagrantly demeaning.. "bitch" being to gender what "nigger" is to race.

..I have, by the way, reported three different readings (within two days) to the Moderaters.
