on Lou Dobbs.

1. Ron Brownstein?

LA Times media ho?

Or Roger Simon from US News. Another ho.

[childslibrarian]

2. I don't know

But you described her incredibly accurately.

[Lancer]

3. I'm all confused now.

Do we mean Karen Tumulty of the Wash Post? I mean TIME.

[Snotcicles]

7. No the one with the huge Adams apple

[951]

5. The nice lady with the navy blue top?

[Kanary]

4. Enough with the sexist terms to describe someone you don't like!

It is quite possible to describe PEOPLE without resorting to sexism!

[951]

6. I agree I thought the original poster went way over the top

[Kanary]

8. Thank you! THere has been a number of these today.

It makes one wonder if there is an effort to insult women to the point where we will all just leave.

I appreciate you speaking up....... that is needed just as much as speaking up against political crap.

:hi:

9. That's why I chose to pretend the adjective was

referring to a MAN! Ain't reverse sexism fun?

[Snotcicles]

10. Sorry Geeez

[951]

11. If you change your topic from 'skank' to Lady or Woman...

16. How about you troll elsewhere

Do you have a point to this topic because I don't see it

[DrWeird]

19. I say call her a "dickhead."

nt

[951]

20. Why? Who the hell are we talking about?

[DrWeird]

22. That dickhead on Lou Dobbs.

Didn't you see her just now?

:evilgrin:

[951]

23. Edit: Forget it I'm not going to have any part of this thread

Obviously the original poster is trolling and I'm not going to feed it

[FlemingsGhost]

12. You know, I loves ya, Kanary ... but after this post:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=2438970&mesg_id=2438988&page=

The moral high ground is not a place one goes to selectively.

I'm just sayin' ...

[Kanary]

14. FAux issue

You may have noticed I was only one of many........and nothing sexist, racist, or any other ism.

dig, dig, dig.......

love, pah

15. ...I'm sorry what are you trying to say I didnt catch it

[TahitiNut]

17. Yeah. Let's just stick with "prick," "dickhead," "no balls," ...

.... "testosterone-poisoned," "hung," "short-armed," and other gender-neutral terms. :eyes:

[Kanary]

18. Brought up everytime, and debunked every time.

Can you point out *ANYWHERE* I have said *any* of those terms are acceptable?

Can you point out *ANY* threads where I have used such terms??

Don't we have enough hatred leveled at us from the RW -- do we have to pick up where they leave off?

Can you explain to me why sexist terms are acceptable to you, but racist terms are not?

ENOUGH.

Kanary

[DrWeird]

21. I haven't got a problem with "dickhead."

Let's call horrible women "dickheads" from now on.

We'll still call Wolf Blitzer a whore.

[TahitiNut]

24. Nowhere did I say *you* used these terms ....

... even though you might have as far as I know. I don't keep score. I don't, however, see the psexism-spolice blowing the off-topic whistle on about half the terms used. I see that as somewhat hypocritical. Sue me. (Oops! "Sue" is a female term, I guess.)

For me, I'm an advocate of equal opportunity epithets - entrapped as we are in a language which inherits gender-specificity (he/she/it). Let's be glad we're not speaking German, French or Spanish where EVERY noun has gender, huh?

I don't personally regard such terms as sexist - a belief that one is inherently superior or inferior based on gender. I'm personally about as free of that particular mental malfunction as anyone you'll find - despite the log/mote/eye-perplexed who envision otherwise.

Hell ... about the only attitude I have that's 'sexist' has to do with who's most able (even if mostly unwilling) to "float my boat." I've worked on that particular bias, but I fear I'm hopeless. :shrug:

:evilgrin:

[Kanary]

25. Many of us *ARE* offended by sexist terms, and that should be just

as much worthy of consideration as racism.

That should go without saying.

If you are unhappy with sexist terms applied to men, then alert and speak up. I don't appreciate you trying to negate my efforts to raise some very sad state of awareness with bogus issues, since that is about what your reply states.

BASTA!

[Snotcicles]

26. To all I offended

The intent was not to offend anyone on DU. And I apologize.
You have made it clear that Skank carrys a particular sting.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

29. Locking.

This thread seems to serve little purpose in fostering discussion.
