I'm not really that upset at the YLYL thread getting closed (though I obviously didn't agree with it) but 'Sedin Sisters' becoming an offensive phrase is exactly the slippery slope people were talking about.
I don't buy it. To me it's a pejorative term as mean as some of the racial and homophobic slurs out there, just that it's sexist.

Why don't we call them the 'Sedin Buffalo Fans' then? I suspect you'll tell me because that doesn't make sense and it's not funny.

So then, you'll have to explain to me why 'Sedin Sisters' does make sense and is funny. Is there something funny about women playing sports?
