Quote:There's not much "interpreting" involved.  Unless thinking has changed over the years, from the syllabus that I linked to earlier, you can't refer to women as females and you can't refer to men as males.  It's not the way that you "interpreted" it, and now you are giving your opinion on how you "think that it was intended".

That's how I took and still how I took it. How you take it is up to you. Your outrage is also up to you just as much as the outrage of people being offended over little things. I term you ever changing crusade in this entire thread as your outrage over people's outrage pretty much the same, TBH. 

 

Again regardless of how you take the meaning of that, given the context of the words proceeding the ones you have an issue with in particular, it's not up to you it's up to the teacher. I wonder if I rolled into a church and said slanderous/misguided or just silly things if I would have the right to stay there or not be chastised. I am guessing no, I would not and rightly so.
