week 12, post #3

The idea behind masculine language seems to be very pertinent in the debate of bias language. I feel that emotionally charged language is often biased, and is more representative of the male masculine perspective. It is unfortunate that the typical gender roles are reiterated in different forms of reference and print, however, the growing influence of the female voice, will hopefully change most if not all of that language to represent the fact that both genders are equal and neither should be steered towards dominance or serviance.
