Originally posted by DaveB View PostNope, pejorative term certainly, but not something that would fall under the banner of profanity.
Of greater concern is that this is the kind of behaviour that ultimately leads to incidents such as the death of Jo Cox. Normalising this kind of aggressive abuse towards anyone, which includes claiming it was funny, just banter or other dismissive remarks, can easily lead to an escalation that ultimately ends in serious physical assault or death. Female MP's in particular have been the subject of this kind of abuse for years, with many of them receiving regular threats from the Speaker of the house of commons.

MP's shouldn't be abused this way in public, to be fair.
