==Referring to Women as Girls==

This is hardly a 'feminist' style.  As a man, I would find it insulting if someone referred to me as a boy, when I am a 30 year old adult.  Its common courtesy to not belittle another adult by referring to them as a child.  [[User:Lono|Lono]] August 10, 2010

==Sense of Humor==
 
==Sense of Humor==
 
I find it ironic that this article states that feminists do not have a sense of humor.  A lot of my fellow conservatives have no sense of humor whatsoever (which is why the 1/2 hour news hour was a welcome attempt, even if it didn't quite hit the mark).  Anyway, this statement is not cited, and sounds like someone's opinion.  I would like to remove it, as this is an encyclopedia.  The rest of the article was spot on, especially the part about "altering language" to assert their viewpoint (At my college, many female student wanted the "ombudsman" to be called an "ombudsperson", despite the fact that Ombudsman is a Swedish word which has nothing to do with men.)--[[User:APeters|APeters]] 13:34, 6 September 2009 (EDT)
