I disagree.  It ceased to be a descriptive term a long, long time ago.  What
is became is a It's a great big rubber stamp one slaps down to dismiss,
trivialize, and above all silence any discussion of a political or social
issue (especially if it concerns women) one does not want to hear about.

I too call bullshit. If you don't like CD Wrights work, fine, but please say
something real.
