Actually, I've Never Had Much of a Problem with The Word.

I mean, I don't mind cunt that much, and I'm not sure we do ourselves any favors by pretending that we are somehow physically harmed when someone uses it.

I've always gotten along just fine with my cunt. I get along just fine with my niggahz, too.


But to answer the larger question: Yes. Obama is perfectly willing to reap the benefits of sexism, just as McCain is perfectly willing to reap the benefits of female anger over same.

And, as most of you know, McCain's got a lot more female advisors than Obama (starting with his wife, his daughters, and his running mate).

And his campaign staffers are paid more, on average, whereas Obama's female staffers are paid less. Whaddya mean, the mainstream media didn't tell you that one?

Did they tell you Palin supports equal rights for same-sex domestic partnerships? Did they tell you she thinks distribution of condoms in high schools (and mention of same in sex-ed classes) is fine? Did they tell you she never took any action to restrict access to abortion in Alaska? Did they tell you that the charge about her allowing rape victims to be billed for evidence collection turned out to be a lie?

No? Hm. Either they're getting increasing lackadaisical, or they're in the tank for Obama. Wonder which one it is. Toughie.

1 Er, well my sense of it is that "cunt" is more a reference to the woman to whom it is attached, than to the sexual organ itself, and is more than a tad harsher than "bitch". C.f. I get along just fine with my prick and my asshole, but to be called either one is another thing. It is low, but then so are very many Obama supporters.

2 Well, we do equate people with body parts pretty much all the time, it's just that we don't often think anything of it. The major issue is, when call someone a body part name, you're dismissing the rest of that person, and concentrating on a single aspect. Which is not too bad, if it's a complimentary aspect... "Geez, you libs are all heart, ain'tcha?" "Hot damn! but that Dilton is a brainiac!" "Surely I hooked up with someone
