The Dixie Chicks have officially changed their name to “the Chicks,” after public discussions arose over the appropriateness of the Civil War-era “Dixie” as part of their moniker. The group had long been unofficially referred to as simply the Chicks by many fans and most of their associates in the music industry, but losing the “Dixie” is still a surprise, albeit a pleasant one to some supporters who had been quietly uncomfortable with the name and its historic connotations. “We want to meet this moment,” the country-pop trio said in a one-sentence statement on its website, alluding to the change.

They can sing well. Too bad they can't think very clearly.

Isn't the word "chick" a derogatory term for "woman"?

#7 is correct. Therefore they should remove both the "Dixie" and the "Chicks" from their name and hopefully never be heard from again.

And what about ladies who are named "Dixie?" There are more than a few older ladies here in the South that were named this. Should they be guilted into changing their name? The stupid.. it burns.
Also, I have to ask, who even listens to these stupid females anymore?

My first dog was a boxer-beagle mix (she ran like a boxer and sang like a beagle!). Her name was Dixie. Every night I sang her to sleep:
My Dixie Darling,
Listen to the song I sing,
Beneath the silver moon with my banjo right in tune.
My heart is ever true,
I love no one but you
My Dixie Darling,
My Dixie Queen.

Just a bunch of has-beens trying to become relevant-they went on record saying they were ashamed to be from the same state as G.W. Bush. Funny how that doesn't seem so controversial anymore.

"Dixie" is offensive to blacks. "Chicks" demeans women. They should change their name to "The."

They should have chosen a completely new name and their best hope is that people would not know who they really are. I would have suggested "Southern Chicks" but I suspect that "Southern" will soon become a forbidden word.

So why do these middle age broads think anybody cares? That is amazing. If they hadn't shot off their mouths, they would still be up front and center. What are they doing now, shopping centers ribbon cutting?

Re #16. One of my mom’s best friends was named “Dixie”. Common name for southern women in those days.

I thought they'd retired! Haven't heard a peep out of them in years! Since they wouldn't just 'shut up and sing', I stopped paying attention to them.

I could think of several more appropriate, and quite rude names for these nasty, leftist women, but I won't say them here.
The one I like the most ......has four letters....and I won't go past that.

How can this group of has-beens get some press? Why, by stealing some limelight from bLACK people during our Great Leap Forward; talk about tone-deaf. Some would say that "chicks" is derogatory toward women and perhaps also invalidates Transitioning-Americans, but that's a bridge to be crossed at a later time.
