  Really? What happens if you says cunt? Or assbandit? Or Donald?

    yeah those are all permitted. It’s very inconsistent.

  It’s a slur.

  • jsomae@lemmy.ml ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Never really thought of it as a slur. Like a general-purpose slur against women? I don’t really agree, it’s in common parlance, at least in my area. I’ve never found it offensive, personally. Generally when people I know use it, it’s meant in a positive, I guess you could say “reclaimed” fashion. Plus, there are much worse slurs that are not censored.

      I’m pretty sure ml sensors all slurs

        not sure how to test this without just publicly posting a big list of slurs lol. Anyway, it’s just odd to me since I don’t consider bitсһ a slur. It’s on the exact same level of rudeness as bastard.

    So?

      It’s good to be sensitive to the concerns of minority groups, and the women on .ml don’t want to see that word.

        Do they know the word exists? Words are meant to describe ideas, if you ban a word the idea isn’t going anywhere. People will just use other words to describe the same idea. Or they will just use the word, it will be removed but everyone will understand the idea.

        Really, I don’t think there’s anything more ridiculous and pathetic than banning words.

    Is dick a slur?

    source

    • queermunist@lemmy.ml ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      No, and cracker isn’t a slur either.

      source

      • Nelots@lemmy.zip ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        It is though. Cracker is used as an insult exclusively against (usually poor) white people. I can only hope you know that, so what sarcastic point are you trying to make? Are you saying dick was a bad comparison to bitch, or are you saying dick is actually a slur the same as cracker? Or something else?

        Dick is as much a slur as bitch, and are used in the same context about the same people. They are neither male nor female slurs.

    What if you are referring specifically to a female canine or Meredith Brooks?
