I'll treat this like a quiz:

1. ‘Mainstream Media’ - Yes, I use that term. Rush regularly used the term and no problem with it. But I also use the terms, "New Media" and "Alternative Media" to distinguish from leftist media. No biggie in my estimation.
2. ‘Gender,’ When You Mean ‘Sex’ - I say sex.
3. ‘Sex-Reassignment Surgery’ - I usually say something that can't be written on Free Republic.
4. ‘Democracy,’ When You Mean ‘Republic’ - Always say Republic and frequently explain the differences with Democracy and why we don't want a Democracy.
5. ‘Abortion Doctors’ and ‘Abortion Clinics’ - I say, Baby Murders, Unborn Baby Murders and Abortion Mills or Killing Factories. This is actually one thing I go out of my way to relabel, even though the original terms are technically correct.
6. ‘Antidiscrimination’ - I don't use the word. I believe in discrimination and it is different than being a bigot.
7. ‘Undocumented Immigrant’ - Wetback works fine for me. I use other terms that are even more vicious, but not on Free Republic.
8. ‘Equity’ Or ‘Equality,’ - When You Mean The Other - No problem with correct usage, all things being equal.
9. ‘Cisgender’ - Say what? Never been uttered from my mouth. I don't even think I ever wrote the word, if it really is a word. (It was cut & pasted in this post.) Only recently (couple of years) have I heard the term.
10. ‘Pro-Choice’ - I say pro-murder.

Pretty easy for me to do all of this, since I didn't give into political correctness back in the 90's or whatever modern language trends exist since. I am firmly reluctant to change, like any good conservative should be. I conserve the American language. There's another term that should be used. We speak and write the American language, not English. We also belong to the American race. I guess that ages me a little.
