Yep. I wrote a paper for psych class on the very subject. Here is a brief portion of it I wrote just for humor and to make my point. *Warning I used correct terminology for anatomy*
Being politically correct goes beyond defining race. Sex is another highly debated topic. Most feminists aren’t satisfied with any words that distinguish between the two major differences in the human race. They think the word “woman” is degrading and that it originates from “wee men.” Are you kidding me? Apparently, male versus female is wrong, too. Now, how are we supposed to identify the sexes? If we differentiate between the two by their chromosomes, men would be XY and women XX. I can already see where this is going. XX is just one X short of pornographic, not good. How about penis versus penisless? Too Freudian. According to Freud, women suffer from penis envy, but some women might argue that with one vagina, a woman can have all the penises she wants. Mangina versus vagina. Nope, sounds vulgar. I know, how about vagina versus vaginaless? VAGINA!! That word isn’t even phonetically appealing. I have an idea, why don’t we take the G from vagina and add it to the E-N-I-S of penis. Now we can all start referring to ourselves as genises. It’s genius! See how ridiculous political correctness has become?

Yeah. In this day and time you can't say anything w/out wondering if it's gonna offend somebody in one way or another. I mean, I'm not for purposely offending someone, and I can be sensitive on certain subjects myself. But some people are WAY too sensitive.
