Ice, I really don’t think this should about threatening each other.

I understand where you are coming from. I truly do. I understand the harm you see from such language even existing.

I understand the unfairness with which it is frequently applied.

Now in terms of:

I’ve absolutely fucking had it with people referring to female politicians or newscasters they don’t like with terms like ‘sluts’, ‘gutter sluts’ and ‘whore’. There is no reason on earth to use those terms. I’ve HAD IT.

I do not merely dislike the lies on Fox. I do not merely disagree. These people are fucking evil and you know it. A woman who uses her body to sway people to evil is called all of those things and worse in this language.

Do you deny they are using their sexuality in an obvious way to sell the propaganda? Do you think that is appropriate?

OK, let’s say we use other words for a woman who engages in this behavior. Call it NEWNOUN.

NEWNOUN: A woman who uses her sexuality in an attempt to manipulate others towards self serving or evil ends.

Given all of the very basic and obvious psychology that I pointed out in my post. How long before NEWNOUN is said with the same resentment level of all of those other words you hate?

The entire point is that there is a fundamental exploit of the system built in to our biology. Unless Both men and women resist employing or falling for the exploit, it will continue to be resented.

Now you can hate me for telling the truth like that. It does not change the truth.
