(via allgrownsup and butterflyeffect) Woah. Misogyny in the ranks of Thesaurus.com? Or perhaps a very bad joke. Either way, you still didn’t find what you were looking for. Someone needs to ask some questions. Christ, get over yourselves. “Weaker sex” is a perfectly good synonym for women as a whole, and has been used for centuries. “Weaker” itself doesn’t have an entry on thesaurus.com, so the results returned are those where “weaker” crops up as one of the synonyms. It’s the same in the results for “stronger”, which doesn’t have its own entry. Surely everyone must’ve heard of the phrase “the weaker sex” before?! Over-reaction and faux-disgust isn’t particularly endearing or impressive.
