alan@ninja.osf.org (Alan Hamilton) gives a long glossary... I must admit, I hate this sort of thing. Any attempt at this type of glossary usually ends up obfuscating instead of clarifying. Take the entry for "woman, womyn" which defines a woman as either a female human or a human who thinks of him/herself as female. Well, I'm sorry, but that's just not how it is. We will eventually render all the words in English meaningless if we keep this up. Please, let's forget it! Who cares what something/someone is called? Just because I like to wear dresses doesn't mean I'm politically correct :-) I can't stand this "womyn" business. :-) Dawn (NOT a woman.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- To find out more about the anon service, send mail to help@anon.penet.fi.
