This issue has gone too far. I refused to be politically correct since before President Clinton was president.
In this PC (politically correct) generation and country, more words and more will emerge. Anything that even hints as a criticism of anyone, race, sexual preference...you name it and it is not PC.
Recently the word "person" is under attack by students at a Washington State University (maybe). The second syllable "son" is objectable: it is gender offensive. Now "son" should be "perx" or "perxn"?
Did you know that calling a person/perxn "crazy" is offensive. It should be "albeist slur" which refers to a person who is mentally deficient.
Did you know that at a recent SyFy convention, the organizers could not create a food choice for space aliens? They chose to serve Mexican food because this had never been served at previous conventions. It was offensive because it could be construed as a reference to Mexican immigrants or "aliens".
"Homosexual" is offensive and should be "same gender loving"..."elderly" is "people of advanced age"..."healthy" is "non-disabled individuals"...
A commemoration of the Holocaust was cancelled because "it was too Euro-centric."
The above were found on Listverse.com.
How many more words will be under attack by these spoiled and self-serving university students? Can you think of some?
Parents: If you are paying for your student to attend a school of this nature, jerk the money rug from beneath them. Community colleges are excellent; two years of required classes there will save money. And, insist on a part-time job to help pay for gas and car insurance.
There. I feel much better.
