"Manhole" Is Now "Maintenance Hole"

[Billy_Kinetta]

The city voted Tuesday night to replace gendered terms in its municipal codes, like “manhole” and “manpower,” with gender-neutral ones like “maintenance hole” and “human effort.”

Seems pretty arbitrary. Does this mean we now call a male anus a "Democrat hole"?

For most jobs involving going down a manhole, the women's movement was smart enough to say "you know what guys?. You can keep that one"

Well, guess we got to find a new name for Man Cave.

I never understood the feminist angst over man caves. What it actually implies is that this is the one room the guy has control over, and his wife/partner runs the rest of the house.

While I realize this is the very grave and serious politics forum, I can't help but mention I've always preferred "woman-hole" anyway.

A specific one, or "all of the above"?

Well, Do you live in Berkeley?

Does this affect you in any way...

Remember your guys don't mind kids dying in there care...

Unfortunately, not so in my house. Sure, I've got a den/office loaded with my man-stuff but she still rearranges everything in there from time to time. I'd padlock the door but she's got bolt cutters, so . . .

So how does a woman not being able to get an abortion in Alabama affect you?

Isn't "human effort" offensive to cosplayers who dress up like chipmunks and have orgy conventions?

It affects the culture, therefore yes, it affects me. I have no intention of adopting Newspeak. I do not see four fingers.

They had to go with Maintenance Hole, because Woman Hole didn't quite have the connotation they were looking for.

This move (and others like) it is the deliberate, planned, slow and methodical erosion of western culture.

This is the Frankfurt School's plan of action being carried out.

In home construction Master Bedroom has been replaced by Owners Suite since Master implies slave owner.
Now folks are bitching about Owners as that is considered the same.

Snowflakes are now 'offended' / 'threatened' by the term 'MANHOLE'?!

Bwuhahahahahahaha

I've lived in this deeply psychotic Bay Area all 46 years of my life, and I assure that Berkley is the one city which makes even San Franshitsco itself look normal and moderate. In the Bay Area, you won't find a greater hive of violent, bloodthirsty, American-hating, screaming leftist train wrecks; that city is the ultimate vessel of failed humanity.

Or like Obi-Wan Kenobi said in Star Wars, "You will never find a greater hive of scum and villainy."

I really want that name changed to WOMAN HOLE!!! Can we get somebody on that?
