This is kind of extreme. Lady Antebellum


Jun 12, 2020, 7:29 AM

They changed their band's name due to "Antebellum" having a slavery association.

Uh, I’m offended by the use of the term “Lady”


Jun 12, 2020, 7:42 AM

and the implications of both a binary gender structure AND a predetermined hierarchy of the worth of qualities found in the females of the human race, if “female” were a thing.

I mean... the word refers to an era? I don’t understand the issue. I’m clearly not at this level of woke.

Antebellum refers to a type of architechture

Does it? I guess they wouldn't like that time period, but I didn't really think it was a term anyone would ever really think about. Should the Dixie Chicks change their name too? Seems like Dixie would be a more recognized word.

Who knows. I have altered my default position...


Jun 12, 2020, 8:50 AM

On these type things to “neutral” .... in the past I use to think the focus on names, symbols, historical context was kind of overblown or even silly.

Apparently these things carry a lot of meaning to others and don’t have significant meaning or impact to me. So in consideration of others, I have evolved to OK that’s cool. I’ll have another cup of coffee or beer and move on.

thats the acceptable use and you can't refer to the band or the era when you said A-word. Consider your context when using it.
