Strangely enough... the whole concept that some word might be negitive always seemed to be a rather horrid way of talking about the langaue. Words like Hate, Dispaire, Gloom, Unlucky, and Environmentalist are not in and of themselves negitive. Just some people want to make you think that they are.
Word definition, and controlling the meaning of words, is a source of power in this world. It works many ways, homosexuals have taken back the words gay and fag, and made them a goo thing. Political conservatives have made liberal a bad word... well I'm trying to take back epicurean with out capitalizing it. }:-)
