I am very cautious of people who thinks this way. This seems to be a
kind of mind problem, I have no words to express a shame I feel when I see
people who think that a word or an expression should be banned or changed
just because of it says something in another very different context.
World is full of crazy people. People that cannot accept the fact there
are other beliefs, and people who will fight (to the death!) for it.
May I land in another planet, please?
