66. There are many more derogatory terms for women than for men.
C--t ( I really hate that word), whore, bitch, slut, tramp.....to name a few. These are words that have been historically used to demean women. There is a much more limited vocabulary when it comes specifically to men. You don't really have to wonder why that is.

I'm all for freedom of speech, but when we are already outnumbered I think that leveling the playing field is a good thing. In another word, yes. Ban it.
