"The defication of words"??

It's a reference to a bit on the Bob & Tom radio show. I'd post a link but it's probably available only to subscribers to their VIP website.

Yeah, I noticed it wasn't the word "sex" that caused the uproar, but "oral sex."

Would not be surprised to find out that she is affiliated with or a member of a fundamentalist religious group/denomination that, either overtly or otherwise, teaches that sex is for procreation only (which means anything other then PIV is dirty, sinful, and wrong*).

Heaven forbid it should also be done for the purposes of intimacy or just plain ol' enjoyment.


*but only if you do it right - there, I said it for you already!

[Ducimus]

Surprisingly enough, we have alot of religious wacko's out here. It's all about upholding their beliefs and protecting the little snow flakes.

Another sterling example, is how kids aren't allowed to dress up for holloween anymore at my kid brothers elementary school because some christian lady threw a big fit about it being a "pagan holiday".

Anywho, its no surpise that "oral sex" in a dictionary caused a stir. Hell, id be surpised if sex by itself didn't cause an issue.

Oh For.... the loonies are definitely starting to run the asylum :damn::damn:

[conus00]

What I don't understand here in the U.S. (and I've been living here for over 10 years now) why there is such an emphasis on pleasing minority groups?

It goes completely against common sense: Because ONE person disagrees/is offended by such-and-such and WHOLE SCHOOL WORTH of parents doesn't care, LET'S BAN IT.

Are you ****ing insane?

BTW @frau_kaleun: what the heck is PIV? :D

[frau kaleun]

BTW @frau_kaleun: what the heck is PIV?


Hmmm... lemme see... how do I explain this in a way appropriate to my delicate sensibilities?

First of all, "I" stands for "In."

"P" stands for something you would put In something else.

"V" stands for the something else you would put it In.

This configuration is generally the one that results in conception of a child, if no preventive measures have been taken.

Ooh ooh ooh Mr. Kotter*... please let me be the one who gets to explain the origins of Easter to her.



*Note to the Youngs: look it up.

[Snestorm]

Hmmm.

Why is "oral sex" in any dictionary?
I don't ask this due to the implications, but because "oral sex" is 2 words.
A dictionary is supposed to define 1 word at a time. It should have defined "oral", and it should have defined "sex". It should not have combined 2 words, and given a definition.

Oddly enough, Websters is at the top of my s__t list, because they don't list, what seems like, half of the words in the english language. Unless of course, you say them in french, then the same word is quite acceptable?!

The only english language dictionary I use is The New Oxford American Dictionary, which comes from England. (Thank you England, for a non-PC, REAL dictionary, with ALL the words!)
Prior to finding that I had to look up words in a english/danish dictionary. I highly recommend it.

Although I do think the school was idiotic(idiodisk) for removing the dictionary, I was one of the 3% that voted "parents should have the right to censor books" (at least for their own child).
Why? Because schools should be controled by the community, not the other way around.
And parents should have some control over what gets pumped into their childrens' minds.

Great explanation even without using terms P---- and V----- (which are medical terms BTW)

:hmmm:

Medical terms?

No, no, no, you've got it all wrong. "P" stands for "pie" and "V" stands for "vacuum cleaner."

I don't know where babies come from where you are, young man, but that's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

Now if you'll excuse me I need to find my smelling salts - I feelz a swoon comin' on.

[Letum]

:stare: Why are you hoovering up pies?!

Pies are lovely and sweet things, fit only for consumption by people and a
few other higher mammals*; not vacuum cleaners.


*Humans, Walrus, Urang-Utang, all marsupials and catfish (I know they arn't mammals).

[Schroeder]

Do you want to discriminate vacuum cleaners by denying them pie?:down:
They have feelings too!
You could get sued for that.;)

:D
Thread successfully derailed....

But conus00 is spot on: why do we (and I mean we Europeans too) always want to please the minority even if it pi**es of the majority and doesn't make any sense at all?:doh:

Tell that to AVGWarhawk's crew (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=160763&page=2). He's making 'em out of seagulls and I'm afraid to ask what else.

[SteamWake]

The pie is a lie :03:

[Letum]

The pie is a lie

THE PIE IS NOT A LIE!
YOU WILL TAKE THAT BACK NOW!

The pie is real.
The pie is real.
The pie is real.

There is no pie. There is only Zuul.

Can you look in the oxford dictionary, see if you can read the definition for "oral history" that is written.
You may notice its two words defined in a "REAL" dictionary.
You may also notice that the "REAL" dictionary contains the oral sex definition.

As for the story, no surprise, its just the fundy nuts at work on education again.
If they are allowed to rewrite text books on science or history why shouldn't they be allowed to rewrite the dictionary too.
