“Don’t be a dick” is sexist.

    Can something be done to eradicate, or at least to have an appropriate/similar phrase alongside “Don’t be a dick” please. May I suggest “don’t be a c4nt” or if that’s a bit much “Don’t be a Fanny”

    I also thing it gives the mods cover to name call, i.e. “the rules say don’t be a dick...you are been a dick so here’s a card etc.”

    Thanks

    So don't be a dick is sexist but don't be a cnut/fanny wouldn't be???

    You're going to have to explain that one for those of us in the cheap seats.

    I don't think there's any real merit to this thread.

    It's nothing other than an idle attempt to conflate a very minor matter with a major one.

    Thread closed.
