So any woman who calls a guy a dick, is a sexist too?

No matter how dickish he behaves?

Could it be that some people here are measuring in different quantities?

Yes, **** is aderogatory term and it's unfair that a man that acts the same way isn't called a ****.
He should be, but still slittish is ****tish, to say the word in itselt is sexit seems very... let's say limited.

If this was 500 years ago, you idiots would have her burned alive by spreading around these rumour.

You're so stupid, you're going to interpret what I'm saying as I'm a big fan of hers. I guess this is what happens when a generation of people grows up thinking it's ok to bully over the internet.

I have two individuals arguing it is sexist.

Me, Kawamura, pikey1969, admcmei, etc. is quite a bit more than two. (It's true, of course, that being a woman doesn't automatically make me the arbiter of what is or is not sexist, but it does give me a perspective that you don't have. Some of the other commenters I named also identified themselves as having that perspective, and that is relevant to discussions of sexism.)

You can argue it being sexist all you want, that is absolutely fine.

However, the main bulk of posts I've responded to (I believe I only responded to one of yours) have not argued for it being sexist, they have declared it.

Arguing requires one or more of a few things: evidence, logical thought, perspective (as you mentioned), analagous examples, etc.

"It is sexist" does not constitute an argument, it is a declarative statement and when used in an argument is usually perceived as arrogant.
