The engineering term for a construction instruction commonly called an "erection manual" will also have to go because some hyphenated womyn might think it is code for pornography.

OTOH, keeping libtards busy rewriting statues like this and insisting it be voted upon paragraph by paragraph might be a good way to keep them occupied.

Just more liberal attempts at trying to change reality because as little children they can’t handle reality.

Just more proof hos stupid liberals really are.

So ... are manhole covers, now person-hole covers?
Can the word manhandle be used or should it be person-handle?

Someone tell these vapid pin-headed LIBs that we don’t need more proof of their stupidity.

My partners and I briefly considered “Permanent Erections” as the name of our ‘70s era framing and forming company.

The wives were against it, for sure...

I was wondering what they are going to do with the words “Woman” or “women”......

And how about “Human”??

You just can’t fix stupid......ya can’t do it!

We should have seen this coming when they redefined “niggardly.”

How about "Gay".....?

Mexico just legalized the use of ‘black’ as a race,...or in Spanish, ‘Negro’. Do you speak Spanish?

Call-person? Um, no. There's a gender bias in the clear appearance of the word "son" in person. Daughters are obviously persons. The word person also needs modernizing. Perpeople? The human huperpeople race?
