Antithesis of Nuance.

That is the fair and balanced look at name-calling scatmongers. In the spirit of Platonic dialogue it is a potential*** pettifogger, and difficult to be untergiversating. Name calling or labels are subtly different but often the lazy route to understanding. This does nothing to justify misogyny, but it is often in the eye or ear of the beholder**. Not to defend the use of the "s" word (slut nor scat) or even comment on the use of the "r" word (Republican?) but to maybe note the lack of better words not to mention (PC) proper context*.

* "name-calling scatmongers"
** as it is wielded
*** embedded obliquity
[Non Sequitor? Or at least less Ad Hominem.]
[OUCH! Remember: context, context, context, and then there is still another perspectivism. Note: in fact my FB comment was lost in the act of seeking context. Something about, "playfully provocative" is in the eye of the beholder...]
