- I would assume "problematic" to be meant in the sense of "bitch is a loaded and often offensive term, even when used without malicious intent, so maybe we should examine our usage of it and perhaps reconsider its appropriateness." Which I would be inclined to agree with. At the very least, we should reduce the number of "does X have to choke a bitch?" references. --KilMichaelMcC 03:16, 5 February 2010 (EST)
- That's not an issue with "bitch," that's an issue with a shallow depth-of-humor on the wiki. I agree wholeheartedly that such oft-repeated jokes should be whittled down to only the best examples. (We did this for "compensating for something" jokes a years ago.) -Derik 03:39, 5 February 2010 (EST)
- Well, I would add that the number of "choke a bitch" references on this wiki I'd prefer to see would probably be zero, as humor evoking violence against women is not a thing I am particularly fond of. --KilMichaelMcC 03:49, 5 February 2010 (EST)
- There's.... two. Here and Darth Vader's page. Not exactly an epidemic. --ItsWalky 08:21, 5 February 2010 (EST)
