I also don't like 'period' as a word for menstruation. I just don't like euphemisms in general.

I'm a nuclear contractor for outage refueling at plants so I work a lot with some really dumb guys sometimes and I hate this more than you can possibly imagine.

Near miss had always irked me until Carlin brought it up in his routine. Also, using the word tinkle for going to the restroom.

And as much as I hate corporate lingo I catch myself using it on occasion. It's infectious!

People who use "woman" as an adjective (woman artist, woman marine biologist, etc.). "Females" as a noun is creepy and dehumanizing, but "female" is a perfectly valid adjective and "woman" in that context is an annoying overcorrection.
