Ludicrous leftoids: Gender blending


 Washington state's governor has signed into law on the final piece of a six-year effort to rewrite state laws using gender-neutral vocabulary, replacing terms such as "fisherman" and "freshman" with "fisher" and "first-year student."
"This was a much larger effort than I had envisioned. Mankind means man and woman," Democratic state Senator Jeanne Kohl-Welles of Seattle revealed to an astonished world. New gender-neutral references include "journey-level plumber" instead of "journeyman plumber," "handwriting" in place of "penmanship," and "signal operator" for "signalman."
