If you’re one of those people offended by the sexism of their own body, I’ve got great news.
Dr. Kristin Small — a gynecologist, obstetrician, and anatomy lecturer — is calling for an end to the term “Adam’s apple.”
Why? Because it’s “misogynistic.”
So the next time you refer to the male-only part, don’t use some male-specific word, you malevolent miscreant.
I guess that last “male” word’s okay, but the Adam thing’s primed for a choking.
So told Kristin to the Brisbane Courier-Mail.
But the good doctor isn’t just down on the protruding throat of the patriarchy; she also wants to heal the heel: “Achilles heel” has gotta go, too.

The woman is stupid. Hysterectomy comes from Greek hysteros meaning womb the Latin equivalent is uteros.

What are you going to call it, then?
This entire thing is stupid. Anything may have been named after somone, but as time passes, it becomes its own identity. No one but a history buff, even thinks about Fort Bragg or Fort Lee, in terms of the Confederate Generals, and then, only in terms of their skill and tenacity in battle. But body parts?
So a penis shouldn't be called a penis? Shall we discuss scrotum? Shall we discuss prostrate? How about mammary glands, ovaries?... Shall I continue? If I were this woman I would be embarrassed to death over such a stupid and pointless topic.
Get over it, lady!!

Dr. Small should change her last name. It's demeaning to all the small people of the world - many of whom have a distinct disadvantage in many competitions and circumstances. How dare she?

Until or prior to 2016 I had never heard or used the word misogynistic. I think back in my younger days it was just plain ole male chauvinist pig but the democrats just have to produce 'clever' wording. This terminology had to be the tag to stick on Donald Trump a clever tag indeed.
Dr. Small is certainly named correct with this small tidbit of useless drumbing.

First of all, I think she is trolling everybody, or second, she has too much free time.

You can rename every single thing that you might desire, but it will never change the inherent nature of that thing itself.
This seems to be what (among many other things) the left cannot seem to grasp.
Shakespeare's famous line comes to mind... "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet."

Just wait until she finds out how Caesarean section got its name.

Hello? During adolescence the vocal range of male children shifts downwards. This is part of a package of biological changes, including more hair in armpits, genital regions, and on the face of males; quickening of sexual activity, and growth in size.
Changes in vocal range require longer vocal cords, which means growth in the throat area. D'Oh. The vocal cords of females do not change size, and their voices (except for richness) generally remain in the same frequency range.
Pure foolishness.

Nope, I'm done abiding by made up rules that change daily to suit the whims of the perpetually aggrieved—not that I ever really paid any attention to them in the first place. These maggots specialize in finding offenses where none exist and then demanding that everyone kowtow (is that an offensive term? I hope so.) to the new woke-cult edict of the day.
Nope. Take your ball and go home, you ain't playin' here.

Interesting. We mathematician's have an excellent, non-genderized expression describing Dr. Small's condition..."pencil envy."

Dr. Small is appropriately named, because she's the exemplar of Small-mindedness.

Oh Dr. Small! You are well-named as in small-minded. You are as silly as those who object to God as the FATHER. Your 15 minutes were wasted.

In most cases these people post this stuff in an attempt to show that they are just as woke as all the other ultraliberal fools that are aggrieved over some other minutia. It's, "Hey look at me. Don't ignore me, I'm worthy of belonging to the club."

The 700 parts of the body that are named after people are named after the WHITE MEN who studied and investigated them. Recognizing disparities in intellectual pursuits is highly problematic in our Marxist utopia.

Also, women can have Adam's apples and penises too, you know. Ask any liberal.

Soooo many blatant microagressions the woke, yet asleep, radical left must contend with in modern-day U. S. of A.

They are holding a contest, clearly. Winner is the one who comes up with THE most stupid, ridiculous, nonsensical version of "sexism or racism" in the country. Rational thought is prohibited. If any rational entries are received, they will be discarded.

Wow, she'd probably get REALLY upset if she knew what some guys call gyno-docs. "____"- doc would probably be just not OK with her.

With apologies to #7, "misogynist" existed and was used way before 2016. I remember using it in grade school during the '70s, along with similar words like "misanthropic"
