...he's saying it's better than "antis" and we should use it instead. That seems correct to me. The objections you raise would apply to anti as well, wouldn't they? I use antis pretty frequently. (I use pedophobia, but rarely pedophobe. I like Puritan for its historical resonance, but Puritans are pretty much sex fascists along with being fascistic in other ways.) Are you arguing no such term is needed, or anti is better, or do you have an alternative to suggest? hugzu ;-p |
