Can't we just play the "we're reclaiming the word to use it as we want" card? Because I like calling certain people d-bags and judging by my current work situation, I'm not going to stop anytime soon. I think certain words have that much more power simply because they are so taboo. Asshole just isn't enough in some cases. Personally, I just use motherfucker, which I suppose is equally sexist. Oh well.
