2	What in the heck is this? (a subreddit called beatingwomen is linking here) No, it demonstrates that it is a problem in some contexts. No words have inherent meaning, so yes, if you want to follow this dumb argument to its logical conclusion, no words are problems. But that's idiotic in practice, because context is hugely important. And in the context of reddit, you aren't just addressing people in the UK and Australia, you're addressing Americans and Canadians, too - for whom the word is an offensive slur against women.	/r/MensRights	13/05/12 05:05 PM
2	What in the heck is this? (a subreddit called beatingwomen is linking here) "Cunt" has very different connotations in the US and Canada than it does in, e.g., Britain and Australia. Here, it's a term primarily used against women.	/r/MensRights	13/05/12 04:49 PM

1	What in the heck is this? (a subreddit called beatingwomen is linking here) Yes, I'm aware. There are a lot of people in North America.	/r/MensRights	13/05/12 04:48 PM
9	What in the heck is this? (a subreddit called beatingwomen is linking here) Really? I feel like "This is /r/gameoftrolls fucking with this subreddit" is roughly equivalent to "Random trolls rustling jimmies".	/r/MensRights	13/05/12 05:24 AM
6	What in the heck is this? (a subreddit called beatingwomen is linking here) Not only are we here the largest gender related forum on the internet, TIL 36,031 > 83,011.	/r/MensRights	13/05/12 05:24 AM
11	What in the heck is this? (a subreddit called beatingwomen is linking here) "The feminist circles"... LMAO.	/r/MensRights	13/05/12 05:22 AM
26	What in the heck is this? (a subreddit called beatingwomen is linking here) Louie CK-based arguments are pretty terrible. He's a good comedian, but modeling your behavior after his stand-up fucking comedy might not be the best choice.	/r/MensRights	13/05/12 05:20 AM
12	What in the heck is this? (a subreddit called beatingwomen is linking here) Also kinda sexist, innit? Nobody calls anyone a shitlady. Also kinda classist. Nobody calls anyone a shitpeasant.	/r/MensRights	13/05/12 05:19 AM
8	What in the heck is this? (a subreddit called beatingwomen is linking here) When what you're being accused of is misogyny, perhaps something that a lot of people (not all people, everywhere, but a significant number) consider to be a relatively strong misogynistic slur isn't exactly helping to erase that attitude.	/r/MensRights	13/05/12 05:18 AM
