Oh please!

Hysterical may be a sexist word by history, but not by usage. It doesn't promote discrimination against women.

I prefer to go by Mrs. and my husband's name. I worked briefly as an ACTRESS, not an ACTOR. I am pround to be a woman, so to me, the title of Actress is not offensive.

By the way, Madam President is the equivalent of Mr. President. A president of either gender may be referred to as President Lastname.

I prefer to say "a lot of nerve" rather than using either gender's genitals; it is more classy than making crude references to sexual organs.

"She is a fisherman" sounds much more natural than "She is a fisherperson."

"They" is plural. Sentences such as "Someone left their umbrella" are gramatically WRONG.

Inventing words like "sportspersonship" and "fisherperson" is stupid and makes feminists look like whiners.
