I don't think alcoholics should have their dignity; often they cost their family, and sometimes their workplaces, their dignity, as well as having none themselves, so they deserve none!. Oh, and contrary to what the guy above me, and many other PC people say, it's not a disease, it's a weakness!. I'm not saying it's not an addiction, but (a) an addiction isn't a disease, and (b) Alcoholics shouldn't be able to exploit the "poor me" factor that calling it a disease brings!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
With all the various issues & problems happening in the world today, you pick this!? Dude, the naming of the issue is just semantics!. The issue remains the same!. Attempting to make it sound polite and “PC” is like putting lipstick on a pig, it’s still a pig/problem no matter how you dress it up!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
its not the word that makes it ugly, its the disease behind the word!.

Maybe it would be "more dignified" to call a rapist a "temporary lover" instead of what he is!
