The whole absurdity of this thread is right there, in these "tender flower"-made labels that can either be taken in their insane exaggerations and presumptive conclusions leading to accusations or can simply be laughed off and ignored. I suggest the latter is much more sensible and desirable than the former. Political correctness in the age of social media dictatorhip is slowly killing all aspects of a lively and interesting conversation. If a Calgary Flames fan wants to call the hated opponent team forwards 'the Sedin Sisters", it's just that - an innocent and harmless trash talk. Move on. |
They should be on the diving team because they are good divers. And there is a men's diving team
An attitude of using a gender to insult someone is not harmless. The amount of harm is small but it is part a larger problem.
Again what do you lose by not calling them Sisters, use a different insult and like you said move on.
