This should have been where this was /thread.

It's unfortunate that some folks want to use language which is harmful to others for no good reason at all. If someone says certain language is problematic and offers good reasons, what's the rationale for persisting? The question is not aimed at Sen, just rhetorical. I'm not sure why there are two sides to this issue.

I don't see why there are two sides, either.

All logical opinions have been shared. The only real disagreement is with me as a person because it appears as though I have never been "checked" for being rude or vulgar. I'm arrogant and uppity, if you will.

And some folks can't stand it. :-)

In reality, there are moderators and super moderators on this site who have had far worse conduct than me--just without profanity. They know who they are and they know what they've done.

I'm not engaging anymore in this thread. Not because I'm "flouncing" because lord knows I hate a flounce LOL. But because, as you said, there is a persistence here. I don't think it comes from a good place, and it says more about them than it does about me.
