If you leave it to the extremists on the left, they wouldn't mind us all keeping our mouths shut. To them, George Orwell's 1984 is a utopia rather than a dystopia. They would even bring thoughtcrime and stuff.
2:05 And therein lies the problem. I do not believe in the policing of language unless it is libel, slander, or fraud, and those can be adjudicated in civil court. Once you let the mob decide what people can and can't say because it might offend someone, they will always push it further and further until you can't keep up with what the lastest offensive fad is. Language that causes actual harm to someone is very different to language that causes perceived harm.
Anything can be viewed as offensive to a group. The example she gives - Histrionic - could be seen as offensive to actors. It comes from the latin 'histro' meaning actor and has negative connortations, which implies over dramatic and often hypocritical.
Also there are some gay men and some Trans women (who are technically men) who wear skirts and use handbags too, so it's not like the comment was targeted specifically towards Cis women.
Its a wonder we are allowed to speak at all
Our mouths would've been kept permanently shut.
🤣

Good old Piers, You go mate 👍What was it Peter Lloyd said, Sticks & stones may break my bones but there's always something to offend a feminist
I think "grow a pair" is the most appropriate thing to say to an immature man or woman.. we both grow pairs when we grow up🙃

These people getting so offended and then cancelling whatever offended them, really offend me...
Everyone should be more like Piers Morgan, too many people turning into snowflakes...keyboard warriors.
Look who's talking! Because you're both of these two lame ass phrases. You're a Wayne Rooney cop-out!

Evey word becomes offensive!!! Unbelievable…
the world is coming to the point you can't even say "i'm gonna wear a black shirt today" as "black" is offensive

Can’t believe she would be ok with allowing people with histrionic disorder to be used as an expression for male aggression.
