Re: [Zen] Fudo-san and womyn

So now I know.  What I still don't know is what motivates such a man to use language so pejorative toward women.  Maybe the bigger question is why a society that, at least in the main stream, no longer accepts racial slurs, finds such language acceptable.  And no, AC, this isn't politically correct bullshit.  It is an _expression_ of real concern about our society's values, as expressed through our language.
