the syllable 'man' should be dropped from the word 'chairman' isn't also right and proper to drop it from the word 'woman'?

I take issue with "male" words that mean bad.

It is time words like "malevolent", "malediction" and "malefactor" were expunged from our language.
;)
volent, diction, factor then, bit daft wouldn't you say. I don't think most people care, i certainly don't.
To be fair perhaps some should be changed to to balance.

Perhaps it should change each year. Even years "femalevolent" and odd years "malevolent".
Never heard such rot! 'Man' is a species as well as a gender
I agree merciasounds....Nevertheless, whilst I wish the same equality for both sexes, I dislike them being grouped together. Ladies are ladies and men are men (gentlemen if appropriate).....Not as we so often hear, both sexes being classified as 'Guys'......What's happened to all of the girls.?
