    As I get older, I have more and more sympathy for people who can’t keep up with socially acceptable terminology. At the same time, I have less and less tolerance for people who deliberately use outdated, insulting language.

      Insisting that people speak a certain way is like insisting that women wear dresses. It’s so fundamentalist

      I have zero tolerance for people who think that their variety of a language is superior to all others, and that they get to impose it on others.
