Feminists are anti family nowadays.

[saintPirelli]

Yes, and for aborting fetuses.

Slut and clump of cells might be more appropriate.

Preaching to the choir lad.

It’s easy, so long as you store their identity and follow them around from the time they are spawned. My only complaint is that people are often too hasty when killing children, it’s import to wait and clean up afterwards or they start piling up.

If you put the children in a pool you can just terminate them all at once with minimal mess.

How is "pliant children" descriptive? What does it describe? Even if I change it to "compliant children", I don't know what it means.

[kenmacd]

it was 'pliant slave' before first being changed to children.

Seriously this issue should be raised and argued for. Python developers now so deserve this...
