Seems some feminists object to the word “woman”. It contains the word “man” you see. They prefer spelling the noun that denotes the sex with no Y chromosome as “womyn”.

Now consider the word “gentlemen” as in “Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please?”

Surely this is no longer an acceptable use of language. Surely someone wishing to gain the attention of an audience should start with:

“Gentlepersons, ….”

Where “gentlepersons” takes the place of “Ladies and gentlemen.”

Except that, well, you see, “person” contains “son”. Isn’t it time we replaced “per-son” with “per-child.”

Yes, I think that’s what we should do. I look forward to a time when announcers start with:

“Perchildren, may I have your attention please?”

I think that would do quite nicely.

Sorry, let them eat cake.

A way minority's can force us, most of us to bend to childish stupidity.
This rubbish is foolish,the thought we will fall in line for the few, is worse.

legally a person..is a fiction

Gender neutral - what does it mean? Are we all to be homogenous hermaphradites? :)

The 'man' bit comes from 'human'.

Most people don't worry about it steven, I suggest you just keep saying "Ladies and Gentlemen".

Or if you insist on an alternative, maybe "gentlepeople". Sounds better than 'perchildren'.

As has been said "man" comes from human the generic name "man", and "Wo" comes from a womb man. Perhaps it is not the man so much they object to but that they posess a womb for children.

Well folks... perhaps now you can see my concerns over Dr Peter Singer being on the board of the Melbourne BIOethics school, with this rather lame view of human animal sexual relations.. not to mention his view of 'incest'.

These things filter down from academia...into the public service and education.....

If we don't FIGHT against such trends.. we will be re-shaped before you can say "social engineering"

The important point is.. it won't stop there.. it will just keep on going until they run out of words to change..then.. they will begin working on PEOPLE.. i.e..the 'inner' person.

We will be declard 'unpersons' if we don't speak 'correctly'

Remind you of a movie/book some years back ?
