When you talk about dehumanising through the use or denial of language, what are your thoughts on females being described as menstruators, or womb havers, or vulva havers, or cervix havers?
You see, those words are used to describe many of us, against our will, and are deeply offensive. It's being forced on us, that's the language we are expected to accept. We are - sometimes literally - policed in our use of language by a tiny number of people.
Sam flaming Smith is part of that movement. So do forgive me if I don't feel particularly inclined to think he's anything other than a self serving prat.
