'methers' *It was a highly discriminatory statement from larry, with which you've agreed. wasn't it?*


I certainly wouldn't agree with it. Derogatory, yes, but highly
discriminatory? No, not even close.

If you describe 'Methers' as being 'highly discriminatory', how would
you describe the N* word?


It's like the word pedophile, which thanks to the Judicial system,
politicians and the press, now encompasses post-pubescent children
within its range of victims, thus mitigating the seriousness of the true
pre-pubescent pedophile. Social stupidity on a grand scale.


Highly discriminatory? Only because it suits your agenda of the moment.
Methers would be quite low on any list of pc-incorrect words, no matter
what the criteria.
