Allen Pace Nilen, Sexism in English.

The author makes some strong points and provides overwhelming details to back up her side. She has a valid point, but i dont think im too interested in this essay. Its annoying to me to bring up such a dumb point. She is contradicting human nature. Its like we want to control everything so much that it fires back on us. Supposedly, we make words have meanings. But we are the ones who make up the words. So if we're so worried about the connotation and the structure of the word, than why did we make it like that. Besides, im not too sure people are really worried about how we talk and the words we use. We're so used to saying and using them that we dont really pay attention to the "sex" of the word, if it even has any.
