We always used to get a bunch of debate camp research cards cut with the word "womyn" used to tag (summarize) them. Supposedly it made our speech act consistent with our feminist criticism. What the fuck ever.
The great thing about it is that it's pronounced completely the same, so if you slip up and talk like a normal person by accident, nobody can tell!
Grumble grumble. If 'woman' is such an offensive word, why does a single-letter respelling make any sodding difference? It still has the same frickin' etymology! Are 'nygger' or 'phaggot' any less offensive? RAR!
