'''Politically correct language''', or ''political correctness'', consists of linguistic or ideologies restrictions imposed by [[liberals]]. Paul Weyrich, founder of the Heritage Foundation, said, "The ideology usually known as ‘Political Correctness,’ which is really the cultural Marxism of the infamous Frankfurt School, is using every type of cultural institution in our country to achieve its purpose, which is the destruction of traditional Western culture and the Christian religion."

<br>[[Liberal]]s impose '''political correctness''' to prevent recognition of differences between men and women, religions, belief systems, sexual inclination and nationalities.  In the 1960s, [[feminists]] began to demand that the neutral pronouns ''he'', ''him'' and ''his'' be replaced with expressions like "he or she", "him or her", "them", etc. This was part of their campaign to redefine the social roles traditionally associated with masculinity and femininity.
