Some activists are busy trying to ban the name "Redskins", which leads me to believe it might be time to start thinking about renaming "Sperm Whales". Why? It's sexist!!!!
I just read an article in yesterday's Daily Sun about whales, sperm whales.
Am I the only one who wonders how or why they came up with that name? It seems that someone must have had "sperm on the brain" when they came up with that name. According to this article, there was a citing of 50 whales which included mothers and juveniles, not just males. But they are known collectively as sperm whales. How embarrassing for the female whales.
Suppose the tables were turned, how would we like to be called "Sperm People"?
