I find it unfortunate that we've spiraled into a discussion of what word SuperFemme -should- have used, when it's clear and established that her intent/meaning was spot-on. It sounds like semantics to me.
We all already know what she meant, as she's had to explain herself over and over again. Why not just go ahead and accept her original comment AS SHE MEANT IT and move on? I think it's just so shitty that she's been made to feel as though she should apologise because the interpretation of a word that she had is different from that of (some) other people.
