‘Man Up,’ ‘Don’t Be A Pussy’

I'm offended by this political correctness. No one gives a shit about what offends me though.

‘Man Up,’ ‘Don’t Be A Pussy’ Labeled Offensive Language at Duke University

by Claire E Healey - Grove City College on April 28, 2014

A new word-discouragement campaign at Duke University has labeled phrases such as “Man Up,” “That’s So Gay,” and “Don’t Be a Pussy” offensive language that “delegitimizes” homosexuality and oppresses and insults people.

But as the campaign has gained national popularity, its detractors have bristled at the effort, calling it a politically correct war on words that will stifle free speech and suggesting its true aim is to redefine terms to control public opinion and – ultimately – public policy.

In fact, the “You Don’t Say” campaign creators have admitted as much.

Anyone involved in the "You don't say" campaign should fucking kill themselves.

Who are these politically correct morons? Surely this is staged?

I just can't understand what could possibly be wrong with the phrase 'Man Up'? Even through the eyes of a psychotic liberal?

Anything male, uplifting and "heroic" is deemed inappropriate.
Furthermore the phrase is verbal proof of the sinister, all-encompassing patriarchy.

I never understood how a college can have so much control over adults.

That's not anti-homo.  "Man Up" is suspiciously homoerotic, if anything.  

Hey look at that man.  Omg he's up.  Run away!

Man discriminates against women. Needs to be changed to human up.

That's discriminatory towards other creatures though. Should be life form up.

Political correctness has become so ridiculous its become self-parody.

Just normal life in Obama's america.


If these people arent put out of power and de-legitimized by any means necessary this country wont be recognizable within the next decade.

Talk about soft kill. Between the race baiting and the gender confusion, I really can't picture the neutrality and overall lack of balls my kids' kids will grow up in. I don't want to get political because of the general closed mindedness of this board, but the endorsement of this train of thought by all authorities and media is very disconcerting. Man the fuck up America!

What do you think about the phrases "don't be a pussy" and "that's so gay"?

[Roger Bacon]

What do you think about the phrases "don't be a pussy" and "that's so gay"?

What about them?

Well, you seemed to exclude them from your statement, so it seems like you may have found these phrases to be somewhat oppressive/discriminatory in nature--moreso than "man up", at least.

Hence the question.

Never did like Duke... Hate them even more now.

I THINK my understanding of the modern liberal ideology illness is strong enough to understand why THEY could find the phrases "don't be a pussy" and "that's so gay" offensive. I can't however understand how "man up" could possibly be construed as offensive in any way. Not even by their creepy standards.

If this was face book I would give what you said a like.

If I can no longer insult people I am going to start punching them so it would only get worse.

Let these guys say it all they want. My son is 9 and hears it all the time. It's a parent's job to instill values and ethics on his child, by the time he is 18 or the first time some whore breaks his heart he will understand what it means. Still remember my dad saying it as I balled my eyes out after a girlfriend broke up with me.
