    I say females and am one. Title has me wondering if it’s from hearing it so frequently.

        I’ve read Fahrenheit 451. Bradbury had interesting thoughts about offensive language, as well.

          So do most people, but overuse by idiots doesn’t negate the concept

            There’s something to be said for picking one’s battles. The concept stands, as well as the concept of not being in a state of perpetual outrage. Life can be sweeter, for it.

            Be well.
