My fellow women, a moment please.
"Pussy" is equated with weakness. It is an insult. It is a slam against the entire gender. Imagine if it were a compliment instead.
When someone says "that person has balls!" It is meant as a compliment.
Please know, ladies, that if you applaud the use of "pussy" as a pejorative, you are insulting yourselves.
Just putting that out there.
Now pardon my intrusion and have at it.

In this brave new world of speech policing, the speaker has no control anymore. It doesn't matter at all what we want to say or think or intend.
The speaker always has control. It's just that some people like Trump never use their brains before opening their mouth.

That's what I'm talking about!
In an interview with Esquire published Wednesday, the actor/director/producer said young America — which he has dubbed both the “kiss-ass” and “pussy” generation — needs to stop calling things racist.

That's what all white racists say. Lol
I could make an identical comment about motherless children growing up to be unsuccessful more often than children with fathers and drop it into two different threads. One could be a thread on uneducated white folks and the other could be on the inner city. I guarantee you that in only one of those threads would that comment get me called a racist even though it is equally true in both circumstances.
For example, I could accuse you of being misogynistic right now. Your statement made me feel bad, and you clearly aren't disagreeing with me because you disagree but because I'm a woman and you seem to hate women. Why do you hate women?
