Can we ban the word "waifu" from NeoGAF?

The term waifu is a product of "sexism" not the cause all that would achieve is people would move onto another word or words.
 
I knew that duckroll character was up to no good.
 
There's nothing wrong with thinking people are attractive, but like... We can't even discuss women on GAF without every single thread turning into a flood of hot pics.

I don't think there needs to be a hard rule preventing that, just continued heavy moderation, and some personal responsibility. Let's talk about Jamie Lee Curtis in 2015 without posting 90 pics of her from the 80's, yeah?

Sorry but what is there to talk about with respect to Jamie Lee Curtis that isn't pics of her from the 80's?
 
I don't think that word is the problem... especially when I usually just see it being used for anime girls.

The objectifying of women does get old though. If there is a picture or video of a woman posted you can guarantee her attractiveness will be rated, no matter how off topic it is.

Yeah, that. It can get pretty creepy and gross.
 
The greater plague iss people just replying to thrads with ayyy lmao


Fuck off. Ugh. Ban them.

Nah. If you want to focus on getting rid of objectification and sexism, I'm okay with that (more moderation on threads/posts that do this). Banning "waifu" isn't doing anything.

Also if we are going to ban anything, we should ban the phrase "one and done". Hate when people do this. It's basically saying there is nothing left to discuss, even though others still might want to discuss things. Even more annoying when multiple people keep quoting it and it starts to derail the thread.
 
waifu, smut, and lewd are my most hated words to see, I can't explain it but those words just piss me off.

manga/animegaf batting 3 for 3
 
Let's ban all words that I don't like. And let's not allow people to have sexual desires for others because that's too human.
