<for those line eaters.....>

has anyone ever heard of the    "huwomen" species???

I agree that this idea of sexism in language is only due to improper 
interpretation of the implications used.

when someone askes you a question regarding MANKIND, do you really think of
only the males in this world??

 My wife tells me that this 'silly subject must have been started by a women'


but I suppose if this line of thought continues for several more years we may

lose the words  'woMEN' 'feMALE' etc..



(is it really hotter in hell???.....)
