Gendered Language: Don’t be a Parrot.

Gendered Language: Don’t be a Parrot.
Daniel and Sarah start slow-mo talking. Cutting cakes into bite sized experience. Sharing food at restaurants. Words have usage, not absolute meaning, The way a word is used determines its meaning. EU diktat on gendered language. Have words ending in “man” lost their gender power. A female chairman makes the point better than calling her chairwoman. Sarah wonders if she can call “man on” at hockey, especially with trans people. Danger of bland boring language. Can changing language change attitudes for the better? Discussion of “master”. Expressions examined: “Shrill”. “Jo Public”. “No Man’s Land”. “Handyman”. “Manpower”. Problem of doing some manual work with great nails. “Bossy”. “King and Queen”. “Virile”. “Fireman”. “Guys”. Daniel manages to go on a non PC rant and spoil the show and so much more.
