Recently, I observed a liberal woman who was quite offended that men in Washington were the ones in charge of "telling her what she could do with her body." She claimed it was offensive to her, as there was no way they could understand her.
I turn this one around - it is quite offensive that she thinks any other person incapable of making an informed decision simply because that person may not share her gender.

It is not uncommon to hear the faulty term "reverse racism." The term is faulty, as there is no such thing, there is simply racism, or the absence thereof. Of course, "reverse racism" is used when a minority (a black person, for example) says or does racist things towards a non-minority (a white person, for example).
Fact is, that in this example, a black person who says or does racist things towards a white person is practicing racism. There is nothing "reverse" about it.

There are others, but these are examples of the two most common. Thoughts?
