Hasn't someone come up with a derogatory term for this yet?

I know many Provincetown residents refer to others as 'breeders'.

One of them is <sigh> but did not turn bad until just recently. Luckily her
husband is able to see the 'right' and cancels out her vote.

Interestingly enough she only votes that way in national elections, for
local issues she always supports the 'right' side. <pun intended>

She is young and idealistic,

She is fiercely opposed to the entrenched leftists running the community
where she and her husband and my grandpuppy live.

You might appreciate this... it was broadcast on local access cable..... the
police chief had to pull one of the councilman (who was the ward captain
where she lives) aside (while still on camera and miked) and explain to him
he was about to get arrested for threatening her with bodily harm for
questioning his recent comments on Cincinnati's television stations.

This councilman can always be counted on for particularly stupid comments on
almost any topic and is a favorite with local news reporters. Thing is....
he doesn't seem to comprehend that his actions are seen as stupid not only
to his neighbors but everyone else within a 50 mile radius..

Being a breeder just implies that you have, have the inclination, or are
simply capable of producing offspring in your particular lifestyle.

In addition to that I was actually married (and had been for a couple years)
to the mother of my children before we started reproducing.

Call me 'ol fashioned....

I can't even *begin* to understand that lawsuit !

The sad thing is we are moving the same way re litigousness and blaming
other people. Car insurance is going up massively due to personal injury
claims. Other really nasty side effects - for example, World War 2 veterans
who risked getting their arses shot off now cannot have a veterans parade
without PAYING £300 insurance "in case someone get's hurt".
Un-f*kng-believable. Insurance for a group of senior citizens to walk along
a road ? I mean what are they going to do - chop someone with their walking
sticks ? Downright disgusting.
