That's EXACTLY what I've been saying all along. THANK YOU!!!

First of all, the alternative meaning for dork is "penis"--yes, I know, it's a scary word to you! Have you ever heard a woman called "Jackass"? How about "asshole"? There's many others. You can also call a man "dickhead" (and yes, that and "dick" DO offend men), "scumbag", or "jerkoff".

It's women like you that make me wish I were gay--you go around assuming that you know everything about how we men think or feel, when in reality, you don't know a damn thing.

Sexist bitch.

Jackass and dork are really not directed towards men or women, dumbass. Also I highly doubt you or any other male has ever been offended by dick or schmuck.

[gigiciccerone]

Good point dipshit.
