Some students at the venerable, all-female Wellesley College are calling for an end to use of the term … women.

Happy to oblige. Wellesley witches or harpies come to mind as suitable replacements.

Maybe you’d prefer “bitch”...?

Wellesley lesbians.

I have heard them referred to as "Wellesley dykes" for years, but maybe that is a registered trademark to be used only for their sports teams.

well, at that school ‘women’ has been used loosely for years.

the term ‘horse faced lesbians’ is far more appropriate

fat, horse faced lesbians

I remember - at a party in the 80’s - them being offended when we called it a girl’s school - insisting it was “women’s college”. There was a yellow “school” road sign near campus which mysteriously had the word “girls” appear overnight on it soon after.

They certainly don't have to invent a new pronoun like some have done...We've had the correct one for who knows how long...

We have He, She, and It....Problem solved...

Then if they want gender neutral, they need to stop being a WOMEN only college.

Let’s not get excited when simple analysis can solve the problem. They don’t want to be called women because of the genitalia they were born with, which can be used to divide humans into two groups. They are sooo sensitive they don’t like division and they don’t like the groups, either.

But what does everybody have, besides opinions? Yeah, let’s just call everyone who objects to “man” or “woman” by what they have in common, B-ttholes.

OK, b-ttholes, we won’t call you women.

There, see how easy it is to use calm analysis to solve life’s little problems?

Waaaahmen! Perfect!

That’s as opposed to real women, who have more important things to be concerned about.

College students today apparently have far too much time on their hands. When I was in college (when dinosaurs roamed the Earth) most of us were concerned about things like the English paper due at the end of the week, the biology lab test coming up, that cute guy or gal in History class, and did we have enough $ to go off-campus and get a hamburger?
