The American Association of Nuns doesn't like the line "Get thee to a nunnery"
It should be noted that in Shakespeare's time, "nunnery" was not taken to mean "convent" by the audience. It was a slang term for, ahh, shall we say, "a house of ill repute".
Was that line offensive to the madams of the time?

Now, I am not, by any means, a racist in any way, shape, or form. And I have to wonder what the motivation of someone who calls me, or someone holding my particular viewpoint, on an issue, a racist (either directly or by implication).
My question is, does this person who complained initially about the master/slave labels, have genuine concerns, or is he just grandstanding in order to make him feel like he accomplished something good?
I will close by offering some sage words of advice from the late Ann Landers:
"Nobody can make you feel inferior without your permission".
"When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the Earth with your eyes turned skyward, for here you have been, and there you will always long to return."
