I'm more and more convinced that middle-class women are afflicted with something akin to mass hysteria. The rabid signaling of virtue in an attempt to establish a pecking order, in which the women would literally mutilate their kids in order to signal virtue. It's an interesting illustration of female psychopathy. Interesting that it correlates inversely with the character assassination that women normally do. Rather than being a Bitch, they try to pre-emptively out-sanctify their rivals in an upward-spiraling arms race to avoid being character assassinated.
Ladies, ladies, please don't get your knickers in a twist. You may consider keeping mum about your membership standards, to avoid being considered a bunch of uterus numpties. However, if your aim is to ban gendered language, I assume that, for instance, Josephine can no longer be called Jo, Danielle must not be called Danny, and as for Georgina? Women can give birth, lactate and breastfeed whilst, outside the circus, men can't. Be proud of what you are because, if it wasn't for women, ladies, and Mamas, we wouldn't be here.

A reminder, dear reader, that you're welcome to comment as Anon but if so, please invent a moniker to appear somewhere in your text ... it tells Watchers nothing, it does help the readers.
