| Should the word "shrew" be banned from DU? |

It does have some real gender specific meanings to it, after all...

The word bitch offends lots of women. It really doesn't matter why, but that it does offend. Just because someone doesn't understand why theyre offended, doesnt make the other person less offended. It just makes them frustrated and offended.
Besides...what's wrong with asshole? That word is great and fits for almost everyone!
That guy's an asshole
She is such an asshole
That dog is an asshole, stay away!
