It’s no secret that some men get monumentally stupid where sex is concerned. For decades, people have wondered, “Why?”
Well, I’ve finally figured that out. It’s the Left’s fault.
The Left has foisted political correctness on our society. Previously, we spoke plainly – even if that offended someone. We used words that meant what, well, the words meant.
If we were talking about a pointy-ended shovel, we called that tool by its proper name: a “spade”. The word “retarded” meant someone whose mental development fell far behind their chronological age. A street criminal could be called a “thug”, and someone who was crippled was called a “cripple” – because that’s what they were.
People were expected to know the correct meaning of words. And if the truth hurt . . . tough.
Political correctness has put an end to that. And it’s had an unfortunate side effect on males.
You see, political correctness demands the use of euphemisms for damn near anything that might possibly offend. And the chief spokesperson for the Left’s highly prolific and vocal Feminist Advisory Team has made it abundantly clear that being male – and especially anything referencing the male genitalia – has been deemed to be “most offensive”.
As a result, men have been forced to come up with a near-infinite list of euphemistic references for the penis (oh, sorry, PC Police – you probably wanted me to say “detestable man-part”) than you could shake yer a stick at. I won’t bother to list them here; I don’t have all day, and I wouldn’t be able to list all of them in any reasonable amount of time anyway.
Hell, the list of acceptable euphemisms even changes periodically. At one point, the term “dork” was an acceptable, if perhaps a bit crude, euphemism for the human male member. Now, per the PC Police, using that term is verboten – because it might offend someone who was clumsy “coordination-challenged” or “socially awkward”. Geez.
The result is predictable. When the subject turns to sex, it now takes 99+% of the capacity of the larger head just to search through the list and determine what “acceptable, politically-correct mot du jure” must be used when talking about the second head on that particular day. Folks, that doesn’t leave a helluva lot of mental capacity for either rational thought or impulse control.
So, yeah – of course men will sometimes act stupid when the subject is sex. It’s damned hard for anyone to be smart when virtually all of their mental capacity is occupied in simply determining what term for “ol’ Willie” is acceptable for use today.
I mean, really – when you can’t even call a “spade” a “spade” lest you offend someone . . . is there even a prayer that you can just call a “dong” a “dong”?
As I said above: it’s the Left’s fault.
That’s my story, and I’m sticking to it. (smile)
