Somebody removed the term \\\"fundie\\\" because it is supposedly a slur for fundamentalists. [[PoliticalCorrectnessGoneMad This is going overboard]]. We could also no longer use the words [[DirtyCommunists \\\"commies\\\"]] or even [[ThoseWackyNazis \\\"nazi\\\"]] since those words are technically \\\"slurs\\\" for communists and members of the German National Socialist Party. [[FundiesSayTheDarndestThings We also have an entire trope page that uses this slur freely]].

LiesDamnLiesAndStatistics aside, I agree with \'\'most\'\' of the above post. Except for the last part. It\'s not an observation. It \'\'should\'\' be an observation, and while it\'s not a polemic against men, it\'s \'\'used\'\' as one, particularly on this website. If it were a simple statement of fact, I doubt anyone would take issue with it, but it\'s essentially used as a justification for declaring that AllMenArePerverts -- even the ones who aren\'t. I don\'t think the page should be removed, but if someone were to take out the snark, I wouldn\'t miss it for a second.
