I couldn't take this woman seriously when she:

a) Already admitted defeat. b) Said the dictionary didn't mean anything because white man c) Cited sources she ostensibly agreed with; that and her essay should draw the natural conclusion that women obviously need their own language and syntax because it's not poisoned by white man.

How can anyone with a sound mind not think that she's an utter lunatic?

Yes, keep using English to describe your position that English is inadequate while being insufferably pediatric about it

I mean, this is like a person claiming that vaccines have microchips and are created by Satan. What do you say to people this delusional? It's like Thomas Paine said To argue with a man who has renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead.

These people could shoot a man in the street and with a straight face tell you that wasn’t violence.

The article basically makes the claim that the dictionary definition doesn't have depth and that if you want to understand the word in its entirety you have to listen to sociologists, what would your counter argument be?

I agree. There is no reverse oppression. There is just one opression: capitalism. And its tentacles: economy, feminism, war...
