>Cardiff Metropolitan University is at the forefront of political correctness sensitivity. The University Bans Lecturers from Using any Sexist or Insensitive Words. The list of banned words is wider than you might think. Here are some examples: mankind, homosexual, housewife, manmade, and sportsmanship.
>The article also states that you should try to avoid words like “mother” and “father” unless you can say “mother and father” together.

It's all true. It's for lectures, so those words will be banned from lecturers and the curriculum, and they'll probably encourage students to stop using them.
Soon they'll try to spread this to every single school. All this shit like "white privilege" "trigger warnings", etc. always starts in a few schools before it spreads everywhere.

>homosexual banned >use same-sex instead
A university, a fucking UNIVERISTY, banned the word homosexual because they think it is a gendered term. They think "homo" means "man" when it means "same"....as in homophone and homonym. An institution whose only function is to educate people doesn't even know basic etymology.

Even for the ones that make sense like "firefighters", they could just give an alternate spelling instead of banning the fucking words.
Also the second meaning of the word "man" as in "mankind" doesn't necessarily mean "male".
This shit is just pointless cultural marxism, and it's amazing that people still don't see it.
The globalists want to turn us into sexless, genderless, raceless, borderless, cultureless slaves (they even brand "housewives" (i.e. women who raise children and stay at home, like they should) as bland "consumers". It's fucking disgusting.
Kayden King

Asher Gonzalez
The theory is that language affects attitudes and expectations. There's an experiment done at universities where students where asked to name an actor („Schauspieler“ in german, which is male and the usually used word for this). The result was that mostly male actors were named. I don't know myself how fair that is, but it's good to illustrate the idea.
What's your argument?

Russian has a tendency of quickly cleaning itself up from artificial and unnatural-sounding words. For example, "Tovarisch" originally had both male (Toвapищ) and female (Toвapкa) genders. The second one has died out so quickly most Russians today won't even believe it ever existed in the first place. It hurts their feefees and reminds them of reality. Who wants to have a "retarded" kid when you can have a "special" one? It's the same logic here. Aren't they alredy trying to replace human with person? Oh wai- >perSON How misoginistic!
Evan Morris
(they) are controlling the discourse by controlling the vocabulary.
A good watch if you want to be more aware in how others are manipulating the world view of you and those around you. youtube.com/watch?v=y3qkf3bajd4 and a clip from the same video if you can't be assed to watch it all youtube.com/watch?v=bX3EZCVj2XA
there's another video called the Subversion Factor which goes even deeper into the spread of communism/marxism within the US government. and it only uses known proven case files to make it's point

Because now they're forcing it by outright banning words, and this shit will be spread everywhere, like it always does. You're just too young to realize how much freedom you've lost over the last decades. There's even a law against "antisemitism" and basically criticism of Israel in the UK now. Calling it a boiling frog, or death by a thousand cuts, but it's happening.
>British Academy Film Awards (Bafta)—the U.K.’s equivalent of the Oscars—will in future be denied to any British movie that only has heterosexual white actors.
>According to a Bafta statement, films will not be eligible for two of their main awards if they do not meet new “diversity criteria” to bring in “under-represented groups,” that is, anyone who is not white, male, or heterosexual.

Which is a fucking retarded point. You can't turn the world into a grey blob just to avoid possibly alienating anyone. You have to draw the line, and we're way past the point where it makes any sort of logical sense. I'm sure some housewives are offended of being called "consumers", that someone is offended by being called an "average person" because they want to be a special snowflake. Everything is potentially "alienating" to someone, even the most minor things, which isn't a problem. If you're offended by the word "mankind", get thicker skin or you won't make it anywhere.
Justin Cruz
I don't think it has anything to do with being offended. The theory is that language shapes minds.

female empowerment if I had to guess 'rape victim' is synonymous with 'used goods' while 'rape survivor' is something they'd put in their resume along with 'social activist' and 'blogger'
