I would. My point is that naughty words don't offend you. The vast majority of posters here delight in them, in fact. Would you not agree?

Like I already said, never mind.
It's absolutely useless to try and have an intelligent debate around here.
*I'M* the one posting chum...yet all the stuff FanDan et al. posts is 100% high-brow intellect designed to stimulate the highest of conversations.

I'm not saying its right... its just more common.
Jim Jefferies uses it a lot as well and actually has a "bit" about its usage in one of his comedy routines.

I'm with you, for the most part. There are, however, some people I like more than animals.

How many people do you like more than your pet?

Speaking strictly biologically, we have the teeth to bite and eat meat.
There is no right or wrong in nature, only survival.
We were created to eat meat and plants.
The very first man to pick up a rock threw it at some animal and then ate it.
Hunting also thins herds so that many deer, say, do not starve to death.
Around here, we have had to open special deer seasons some years because of the over-population. Deer were being hit on the expressways and causing problems coming into neighborhoods.
Some of you best conservationists are hunters.
Much more so than hcap and ALLGORE added together.

It's the hypocrisy that offends me. Do as I say, not as I do.
"I'm a liberal. I stand for women's rights! Conservatives hate women. They are misogynists. They wage war on women. Oh wait, there's a woman doing something we liberals can never approve of...she's nothing but a "spoilt c**t" or from another liberal recently (and a woman to boot), "she's a feckless c**t."
It's cool and all. I mean, you guys shove Republican and conservative hypocrisy in my face all the time around here...but when I do the same to you, you get all hot and bothered.
Fun times, right?

And it should...
There are a bazillion examples of Trump supporters flip flopping on issues here...
I call it out and get the "biggest dick" award! 
Still like ya though just pointing it out.

And that's where you are 100% wrong. You didn't win that award for pointing out hypocrisy. Or ragging on Trump. There are others on here that run circles around you in that regard, and would have won it going away if that is what it was based on.

It's a personal choice...and we all have the right to form our own opinions about it. What bothers me is when the trophy hunter calls himself a "sportsman"...as if he were somehow engaging in a "sport" in which he could possibly LOSE. That's why I take a certain satisfaction in those rare cases where the tables are turned...and the hunter is mauled by the prey. Part of the game...RIGHT?

Gervais uses that word 20 times a week on Twitter. Hasn't it already been said a few times in this thread? He's not insulting "women", he's insulting people and practices.

Yeah, of course that is right.
And Trump was complimenting the virtues of those women. 
My GAWD, Baghdad Bob would be so proud of you.
You forgive anyone for anything that suits your agenda.

Liberals and Dems simply offer women more than conservatives and repogs. I don't recall any mainstream lib or dem calling cons misogynists, or that they wage war on women. Women themselves are not that fond of conservatives. Overall, 54% of women voted for Clinton, much higher than the 42% of women who voted for Trump.
The weekend of Jan. 20th, 2018 marked the one-year anniversary of the largest U.S. demonstration in history. On Jan. 21, 2017, millions of people stormed capitals and town squares across the country and globe in protest, just one day after the inauguration of President Donald Trump. And there's an indication that the resistance is still going strong one year later, judging by how big the 2018
Guess what. They were not marching for any conservative issues
There is a good chance the midterms will be decided by women, and specifically women of color. Particularly after Trumps immigration fiasco
