The University of Leipzig has voted to adopt the feminine version of the word for professor as its default. In German, Professorin refers to a female professor while Professor is the male equivalent.
Under the new measures, written documents will use the term Professorinnen when referring to professors in general. A footnote is to explain that male professors are also included in the description.

Change things all you want, the still don’t have a penis. Maybe a strong, non-offensive, slap on the ass will let them come with their senses. I mean to their senses-sorry.

Art Linkletter in
Kids Say the Darndest Things mentions a kid who, when asked what she wanted to do when she grew up, answered: "I want to be an actress, like Jack Benny."
She was ahead of her time, linguistically.

Screwed up. Having the male gender cover both male and female professors is okay. The other way is weird, somehow. It’s related to whatever it is that makes it okay for girls to wear guy jeans but not vice versa.

Its accurate, non of the leftist metrosexuals have any.

Have you noticed that just about everybody demanding “equality” of one kind or other are actually demanding supremacy?
