| SOS or son of satan. I think we need new words to denote people (men) |
|
who are evil (bush) without reference to their female heritage. (Well in the case of bush, SOB probably would be correct.)Language is so much a problem and so much a contributor to the degradation and enslavement of women that we need new words and phrases to free ourselves. Do you have any other words or phrases to add to our freedom list? We could change my most hated phrase, bitchslap, to bushslap. We could change bastard to bushtard.

but "bushtard" sounds like a derivative of "retard," which is an offensive word. One of the most awesome professors I've ever had has a few close family members who have Down syndrome, and he would get REALLY offended if anybody used that word, which I think he (and anybody else) had a right to. We could use "Bushturd," though.

| 3. Well, I would not want to cause any thought of referring to mentally |
|
disabled folks in that way. Bushturd is much better. Also perhaps I should change SOS which has a rescue reference to SOD or son of the DEVIL!!
