we should start using the real definition of asexual

[Despanan]

It doesn't mean that you don't like sex.

[Alan]

What happened?

[Despanan]

Some asshole made a stupid page on wikipedia.

[Garethsteen]

Asexual:

–adjective
1. Biology.
a. having no sex or sexual organs.
b. independent of sexual processes, esp. not involving the union of male and female germ cells.
2. free from or unaffected by sexuality: an asexual friendship.

[Versus]

At least it's funny.

[≈Mortal•Mælstrom≈]

wikipedia is rubbish!

[Apathy's_Child]

Maybe your MOM should start using the real definition of asexual.

YEAH.

[Geoluhread]

If you don't like it, log in there and delete it -or modify it-. Simple as that.

[Catch]

I thought it involved anal, so via la Wiki!

[Saya]

The LGBTQ advocacy group here uses the term, it seems pretty legit.

Besides, I'm sure worms and other creatures aren't that upset. Its not like the island of Lesbos suing so gay people can't appropriate their nationality.

[Despanan]

If you can't reproduce via splitting your body in half, and both halves growing into a new "you" then you have no business calling yourself "asexual" and you aren't allowed to have a flag.

[Saya]

But couldn't you also say "If you're not happy, you can't call yourself gay" or "if you aren't from Lesbos, you can't say you're a lesbian" or "if you're not a levee, you aren't a dyke"?

[Underwater Ophelia]

Hey man, dike=/=dykeeeeeee.

[Despanan]

One time, I saved a whole town by sticking my finger in a dyke.

It was a magical evening.

Dyke is an alternate spelling of dike. Offa's Dyke?

[Despanan]

I still demand to see Emily Autumn grow another, smaller, Emily Autumn on her back, and then have that Emily Autumn break off and grow to full size.

[Saya]

Fine, but only if polyamorous people stop mixing Greek and Latin roots.

AHHHH COPULATION! n_n

No, I'm not, Offa's Dyke is an inside joke between me and the pixies.

Point remains that dike and dyke meant levee for a long time, then meant a butch woman as slang, that was accepted, and then was reclaimed by lesbians, although certainly can still be used as an insult. English has a fantastic history of changing meanings if enough people believe in it.

English is a pain in the ass. I was born in the U.S., english is my first language, and I have been speaking it for about 28 years. Schools make you take at the very least, one class of english-related curriculum per grade, from kindergarten through your graduating classes. When you go to college you still have more english-language based classes (reading, writing, composition) and it is an overly complex language for some. I can see why! I have O.C.D. when it comes to grammatical errors, therefore, I find proof-reading everything at least several times satisfies my disorder temporarily until I read an article or post that is riddled with multiple errors. Unfortunately, most newspapers and other professional literature authorities tend to overlook the editing or depend too much on the spellcheck tool. Spellcheck only works as well as the person using it. For instance, if one wanted to type "Their car was in the rain." and incorrectly spelled it to the effect of "There car was in the reign." the spellcheck would completely overlook it simply because the words in the second sentence are spelled correctly even though the words have different meanings. In current times, most modern spellcheck programs might pick up on punctuation errors, however, it doesn't mean that what is typed is done in the correct fashion or brings the point of the statement across to the reader. I think I am through bitching now. Everyone have an exciting day!

So does every other lang, mang.

And yet you didn't capitalize "English."

[≈Mortal•Mælstrom≈]

On another note, really quick, it is okay to have a day or two when just getting your point across shouldn't have to be perfectly spelled and proofread ten times. I, too, can post scribblings such as "today i went to the fridge and there was nothin in it. damit!" and be perfectly fine. I think if I typed "2day i wnt 2 frdg n thers nuthn int. dmit" on a computer, that I should stop using my cell for a while.

I disagree. There are many other languages that are simplified.
