Its pathetic, what about the terms male and female in cable connections? They will be saying thats some how offensive next.

The link doesn't seem to work but I'm guessing this is the Master/Slave nonsense from Los Angeles County.

These terms are a bit dated. Perhaps we should update them. How about Pimp/Whore or even better, Daddy/Bitch

When people use the term "lol" for laugh out loud, I think "yea right sure you did", I do it myself often.

I did genuinely have a good chuckle at that! Well done

How long before some idiot in the UK does the same?

What's next I wonder? Lets ban "down town and up town" incase "down towners" feel opressed. How about getting rid of Up and Down on lifts too. You could have great fun guessing which direction the lift is going. And while we here why not rename all the floors in a building:

The top floor could be "Another one. No more after this"

The ground floor could be "The level you came in at"

and everything in between could be "another one" so everyone feels equal.
