It's a Hebrew word that means "so be it". It has no gender associated with it. By saying it a different way, you're basically just speaking nonsense. It'd be like you saying something to me and instead of saying "Indeed", I say "Inadanvghec;akdjf;l"
Why do you fools keep posting in this lame, old news thread? https://bbs.clutchfans.net/threads/amen-and-a-women.309463/
Seems like a good place for a George Carlin quote, may he rest in peace: When it comes to changing the language, I think [feminists] make some good points. Because we do think in language. And so the quality of our thoughts and ideas can only be as good as the quality of our language. So maybe some of this patriarchal **** ought to go away. I think "spokesman" ought to be "spokesperson." I think "chairman" ought to be "chairperson." I think "mankind" ought to be "humankind." But they take it too far, they take themselves too seriously, they exaggerate. They want me to call that thing in the street a "personhole cover." I think that's taking it a little bit too far! What would you call a ladies' man, a "person's person"? That would make a he-man an "it-person." Little kids would be afraid of the "boogie-person." They'd look up in the sky and see the "person in the moon." Guys would say "come back here and fight like a person," and we'd all sing "For It's a Jolly Good Person," that's the kind of thing you would hear on "Late Night with David Letterperson"! You know what I mean? ...yup.
Corporate Democrats concentrate on this stuff because it's a good handwaive to ignore actual proggressive economic reform. Notice which type of Democrat politician cares more about things like "the diversity of the cabinet" or whether the secretary of state is a transgender atheist Muslim black woman. This is how they try to show they str "proggressive". It's nothing but waiving a magical hand to ignore real issues.
