  • The conversation around the two really wears me out.

    Sorry! I came across a game and realised that there were two distinct terms that I had heard/seen over the years, and so I wondered what the difference was. Never come across discourse over it before, so that's why I posted.

  • The studies where it 'improves' hygiene are poorly designed as they don't control for education and understanding.

    In other words - what's better: teaching our baby boys the simple act of cleaning under their foreskin in the bath, along with the rest of their body or cutting off a sensitive and important part of their body to make masturbation and sex more difficult?

  • I mean, it's only embarrassing for them - if they want to be loud, proud, and wrong that's okay.

    But at the same time, they may well set the trend for how it's pronounced in the future.

    Lord knows, waDer (i.e. water) started somewhere...

    Edit: I'm guessing I offended someone by implying that saying 'wadder' is the wrong way to say water, hahaha.

  • Eh, I prefer the descriptivist method of language. It's how language evolves over time.

    Comparing it to a personal name is a false equivalence. GIF is an acronym, people could enunciate each letter if they so preferred and it would be more accurate/true to creation than even the creator's opinion of how to pronounce it.
