It's not sexism. There's nothing gender-specific about it.

EDIT: As an aside, I've been refreshing the page frequently and the dynamics of which comments are rapidly going gray and back to black are very interesting. Not to mention the order of comments on this page. Clearly there's some strong opinions here. I feel like an analysis of post voting frequency and vote type could be performed and would be very insightful.

What, to my mind, is? Cheerio chap! How about you misread my post? Try some reading comprehension.
Try defending your assertion that the word 'whore' is not gendered instead of giving up after a single comment.
if calling miley cyrus a whore of babylon isn't sexist within your mindspace, your mindspace is weird.
Opinions about subsets map so well to the whole set.
