in that editors defense, if it was possible to run the numbers I am positive that over 90% of times the verb “nagging” has been used it was to refer to a woman

Hey, look on the bright side, the Spanish word for “handcuffs” is “esposas”

“shrill” – defined as “the rising shrill of women’s voices”– and “psyche” – for which the example sentence is, “I will never really fathom the female psyche”. “Grating”, defined as “sounding harsh and unpleasant”, was illustrated with the phrase “her high, grating voice”, while the adjective “nagging” used the…

Uber has too many drivers and now the drivers can’t make decent wages? Who would have thought that could happen? This is what happens when the company allows anyone and everyone to be a driver.

Bernie Sanders Makes Another Sweeping Proclamation With No Plan

I don’t think Michael Caine’s statements were outrageous. Lee Daniels has also publicly stated that the work has to be there.
