Besides I do not see how the use of 'gutter'-language (don't know if this is the right term) adds to the quality of the discussion here. I do not mind a crass word once in a while, but the use of this kind of language has increased lately, especially in the OT. I do not know if there is a connection, but it also seems that there are less and less women participating in discussions here on ET - this kind of language sure does not sound very inviting, if we want more women to participate.
