As a woman I’m offended by the name “Chicks”. Besides, without the “Dixie” it just sounds stupid.

The DipChicks would be more appropriate.

““Chicks” be Sexist, man!”

I guess they’ll now have to drop “Chicks” from their name and just be known as “The” ...

“Fat b!tch and the 2 Woke Washed Up Whores” would be a better name for them.

They’re a little long in the tooth to be called The Chicks.

Perhaps The Broads?

Is that short dykey one still with them?

Quoting Tom Woods: The Dixie Chicks have renamed themselves “The Chicks.” That’s a relief. I think everybody assumed they supported slavery with the earlier name.

That would be a great name for the band if The Chicks doesn’t work out: Dixie, Daisy, and Fat @ss

Update, from NYS..

Country band ‘The Chicks’ coming to Canandaigua this summer

Ontario is a red county, but Canandaigua is pretty lefty.

"Chick" is a derogatory term, many women find the term offensive and demeaning because of its flippant nature. It conjures up an image of a group of unshaven t-shirted men at the beach with a pack of cigarettes rolled up in one sleeve leering at a passing woman and referring to her as a "hot chick." Just imagine being that poor woman, just minding her own business at the beach, being objectified in such a manner.

I can't believe that this washed up modern country band, who hasn't had a radio hit in over two decades, would choose a name that is so offensive to women. They must be a bunch of insensitive misogynists who just don't respect women very much.

All this hate directed towards women...when will it stop?
