Limbaugh has been talking about this since the early 90s.
For libs/progs, 1984 is a user's manual, not a cautionary tale.

Webster went woke awhile ago. They changed the definition of racism like 12 times in the last couple of years.

this really is some scary stuff.
ACB had no idea that word was "offensive". only time all day she was taken aback- she was probably thinking "what in the flying frick clown world is this"

Because it's not.

This is insane. So we are going to let a small percentage of the population determine what a definition is.
Words have meaning and they don't change.
Preference doesn't necessarily mean you made a choice to like or dislike something. You can prefer something naturally without making a conscious decision.
I hate sweet peas. That is not a conscious decision I made, it is something that for me was not a choice. For me I have never liked the taste. So if you ask me if I want some sweet peas, I'll tell you I don't like them and I prefer green beans.
My preference was not a conscious decision. This is a ludicrous argument by the left to change definitions to trap an individual and smear somebody.

Our opinions are assigned to us.
Webster didn't even know it was offensive, until the assignment went out through the media megaphone.

The only thing I disliked about yesterday was how they cornered her into “apologizing” for such inanity.

and people really need to wake the frick up. this cancel culture, everyone is racist and offensive shitshow, has penetrated the highest, most revered place in the world- the US Supreme Court- as if yesterday. really unbelievable, but that is how the left works now.
thank God Ruth died so we will still have an ounce of dignity in this country

If you believe that sexual attraction is voluntary, I can certainly see how you might see the term “sexual preference” as being more-accurate as a description.
If you believe that sexual attraction is innate, I can certainly see how you might see the term “sexual orientation” as being more-accurate as a description.
But I am at a loss the understand how either term could be “offensive” to any rational person.

Who said anything about rational people?

I’m oriented to hot chicks, but I’d prefer an ugly one with a hot body if it’s been a while.

I think you may have just stumbled onto the key problem facing the modern left in America.

If you're on the left and looking to stir up a controversy then it doesn't take much. The MSM will work to blow it out of proportion.

Resist at ALL costs. Western Civilization doesn’t survive if they win.

Because rational thought has nothing to do with it.

Anyone offended by "sexual preference" needs to grow some thicker skin and act like a damn adult.
The word "preference" by it's nature does not assume or imply a conscious choice.
I prefer sangiovese to merlot. That's not because I made a conscious decision to prefer one over the other. My tastebuds and olfactory senses just happen to make one more pleasing to me than the other.
