 Political Correctness Thread

Post the politically correct phrases that annoy you most or the things that can't be said in PC circles, but you think are fine.
For me, it's when people say "female-bodied person" instead of female. They do this because they don't equate body parts with gender. To them, it's about how you feel.

It's not a PC thing, but I hate when someone substitutes a "curse" word with something else. Freak/fuck, etc. It's the intenton of the word, not the word itself. It sounds 3rd grade-ish, but I hear this shit all the time.

I really dislike it when people replace the pronouns he/she and her/his with them and their.

Not sure if this counts, but since I've seen it amidst many politically-charged conversations..
"Check your privilege" makes me want to lay people out whenever I hear it, no matter who it was directed to.

Signature this, ho.

I just want to be able to say black people. Or maybe mixed race gasp. Not even any other term, just the recent days where it wasn't this "African American" horseshit. Who cares? And does Obama ever claim his white mom? No, he's "African American".

Obama's mom's family raised the guy, but he idolized his father who abandoned him, go figure.
Also I'd like to add the whole separation between sex and gender... It's dumb, you're either male or female. Unless you've got some weird chromosonal stuff going on, then you're just defective in a sense.
