Sometime in the mid-70s, I read a newspaper column that has remained with me forever. While I'd love to quote a source, I simply can't find it, though I read it in the Berkshire Eagle newspaper.

The author bemoans changing the language simply due to what we today call PC. He goes on to show what would happen to Harry S Truman's name in (today's) world:
Harry - well, that speaks to the hirsute, but are we really dismissing all those challenged in that area? If we're to talk of "harry", we must also include "Baldy"
S - we all know the "S" in Harry S Truman didn't stand for anything (at least, in the 70s all schoolchildren knew this), so any letter should do. Let's choose "R"
Tru - sure, but why not false, which is equally valid.
Man - why not "woman"? Come to think, "person"is more correct. Oh, wait, "person" is also sexist, and could be "perdaughter"

Thus the name Baldy R Falseperdaughter to refer to refer to our 33rd president.

Ludicrous? Sure, but it's stayed with me for over 40 years.
