First of all, i knew you were going to play the "words change meanings over time" card and i have no problem with that.
What i have a problem with is a small, or large group of people insisting that you change the meaning of a word, like 99% of the the transgendered community seems to do.
If words change overtime colloquially by organic means, i have no problem with that. But do not try to force people to change a word to mean what you want it to...that is the essence of totalitarianism and dictatorship and I reject all forms of that behavior.
The word "man" is not a malleable or an ambiguous word either so if someone is trying to change it, odds are they aren't happy with what they know the word actually means.
I can duct tape a shopping cart on the back of my moped and insist that everyone call it a "pick up truck" but the reality is that its a moped with a shopping cart on the back of it.

Please stop making serious posts. It's very "un lron" like, and makes me fear we are nearing the.end and our coveted (non) transgender jesus is coming. And sadly I am not rdy~
