Subject: PC Language



After reading two student term papers on politically correct language (one

on parody PC and one on serious PC), I am having a hard time distinguishing

between parody and serious intent.



My question, however, has to do with who makes up the body of PC activists.

College professors? Feminists? Special ed teachers? Minority activists?

Males who want to work at Hooters? The super-ego?



Where does this euphemistic/revisionist energy come from?



PC-challenged,
