I'm with FSUZeta. You want to call the women's leam the Lady Vols? That's fine as long as the men's is Gentlemen Vols. Otherwise, why should the women's team be designated as such and the men's not?

I'm okay with some of the situations stufield listed and think they are fun when they are words that already designated male and female, but things like "Texans" and "TexAnns" make me cringe...
