I've been reading this morning a conversation started yesterday by the publication at Bilerico of an essay by Tobi Hill-Meyer about offensive language and how one might apply the words "->-bleeped-<-" and "she-male" or whether or not they should be applied at all.
The comments are divided at this point. Some feel they shouldn't use the word, some feel they should to "redeem" them and others appear to not have strong opinions one way or another.
