These pansies need to man up and deal with the fact that this pussy-footing garbage does them no good at all in the real world, which is, despite their ballsy attempts to enforce otherwise, strongly cisgendered and heteronormative.

Duke is offensive on several levels. First of all, it is a title for an aristocrat which diminishes equality. Second, it’s a MALE aristo, so there’s the whole cisgender normative disconnect for anyone who is not a cisgender male”. Thirdly, John Wayne = The Duke. Wayne massacred his Native American betters by the hundreds in his movies. With guns. Also, there is the pugilistic and aggressive usage of the word…”Put up your dukes” is verbal assault and an incitement to violence.
We therefore respectfully request the name be changed to Dooky University. Dooky is a juvenile slang term for feces, and everybody poops, so what could be more equal than that?
@38 – Not so obvious – the OED is unabridged…
@44 In vs Is typo. Frankly the left view any word as offensive, if they so declare it.

. . . “Awww, you need some Vagisil for that p****?” [OK, that really is offensive, but funny as hell when directed to a whiny male.]
‘birthday’ because it celebrates pregnancy and child rearing which are forms of slavery according to liberals and feminists
