Just substitute Peep for Man or Woman - seapeep, riflepeep, unpeeped.

Too bad all these people who went to the finest colleges never got an education. “Man” is the Old English word for “person”. It is neutral. (See “woman,” wife person.) It only picked up the secondary meaning of “a male person” because its proper word, “wer”, fell out of the English language.

The logical conclusion to all of this is to censor and dub over episodes of the original Star Trek series whenever Mr. Spock refers to “carbon-based life forms.” Can’t make a reference to carbon either, except for footprints.

Is there anything in America that Obama and his fellow America hating, pussified, Nancy-Boy, sexual perverts aren't determined to destroy!
This has been the Marine Corps policy as long as I can remember:
Every Marine A Rifleman!
If they change it, itjust won't have the same ring:
Every Marine A Rifleperson! Every Marine A Carbon Based Biped!
Some Marines A Rifleman!
Some Marines A Rifle Female!
Some Marines A Rifle Homosexual!
Some Marines A Rifle Cross-Dresser!
Some Marines A Rifle Gender Fluid!

So woman will be called wo and humans called hu, and every man or men will be eliminated? Is that agenda?

The consequences of a dumbed down curriculum and losing the language. In English, as in all languages I’m aware of, the masculine includes the feminine when referring to a group with both sexes in it. Mankind, anyone?
