‘Man Up,’ ‘Don’t Be A Pussy’ Labeled Offensive Language at Duke University:

A new word-discouragement campaign at Duke University has labeled phrases such as “Man Up,” “That’s So Gay,” and “Don’t Be a Pussy” offensive language that “delegitimizes” homosexuality and oppresses and insults people.

Beginning to think that the politician that called Obama a liar in Congress might be on to something.
