I noted a major problem.
"Woman" also contains the word "man". Iterating the above substitution process yields wowoman, wowowoman etc.
I believe the only rescue from this problem is to use some linguistic fixed point combinator, like μX.woX, that stands for the infinite expansion "wowowowowo..." of the above process.
Excellent

I'm tempted to write a browser plugin that replaces every occurence of "man", regardless of context, by "woman". Shouldn't be hard.
You will run afoul of transgender men, born as women, who attempt to describe themselves. Your plan is deeply immoral.

I mentioned what you said, and a friend of mine told me about a famous track runner name Tyson Gay (I think)
Anyway, some Christian website would automatically change the word “gay” on any news article on its website to “homosexual” so when this man was running and there was news about him, it would automaticllay come out as “Tyson Homosexual”. 555

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Do you think the clergyman who said this unbelievably stupid thing is aware of how he exploded the internet?
I believe the clergyman is a sitting Democrat in the House...
