Man-ban in the British parliament
We read:
"Parliament has banished the word 'chairman' from its proceedings for being too sexist. MPs voted by 206 to 90 to replace it with the gender neutral 'chair' as part of sweeping reforms in the Commons. The move was endorsed by Commons Leader Harriet Harman, who has spearheaded a feminist agenda at Westminster.
But Tory MP Nadine Dorries condemned the move as 'ridiculous'. She said: 'What a complete nonsense. MPs should be getting on with the more substantive reforms in the Commons rather than dealing with this politically correct frippery.'

Since sex differences play such a large part in out lives, refusing to acknowledge them seems hostile to reality, to me. But Leftists never have been very comfortable with reality.

Hey, it's Britain. What else would you expect.
they'll have to get rid of woman too. Woman means womb of man. LOL
man is the name of the species not the masculine gender ,,,, we don't get a separate word for that , but the feminine gender does "woman" ,,,, maybe Parliament should use an awkward term like chair-anthropus .

Womyn? Maybe Psycho Hose Beasts would be more appropriate. Such people aren't worth talking to, dealing with, dating, or hiring. I think even the comedy Hot Fuzz makes fun at British preoccupation with such PC BS.
I've often wondered why feminist prefer "person" to "man."
Don't they know that person = per son (as opposed to per daughter)?
As a business owner, when I detect a feminist during the hiring process I usually file their resume in the round "file" never to be seen again.
How about, Es scortum obscenus vilis.
The english language is already quite gender-neutral campared with some other major languages whose whole grammar is based on "masculine" and "feminine".
So Harriet Harman will now be referred to as Harriet Har?
She should change her name to Harriet Hairywoman.
Isn't the word man Old English for person? The prefix Wer or Wif signified gender. This wouldn't never happen in a country where the English language was invented.
Wait, this is not-so-Great-anymore Britain.
'Great' in 'Great Britain' refers to area NOT status or importance - ie. the WHOLE island comprising the kingdoms of England, Wales and Scotland.
