My own work is crafted.
I haven't seen this kind of abusive language on the list for years.
I feel as one of the people running the list, I should apologize.
And I don't know the answer to 3.

3 Questions re: recent postings -

1.  Is the (creative) writing posted on this listed generated spontaneously or 
is it crafted?
2.  Why does abusive language usually contain more references to what is 
understood as female body parts rather than those considered male?
3.  Is it only in South Africa (outside of America and thanks to the overwhelming American media 
influence) that terms like "Bitch" and "Bitchslapping" are negative feminine 
terms applied to gay men?
