Humiliation?

it's intended to be an undershirt, though in certain circumstances/socio-economic communities, it is seen worn as an outer garment. Used to be kind of a jab at people in that context.
it use to be called a "tank top", started during WW2, worn by tankers for the hot interior f the tank!
 
Just because you cancel a name of a garment because it's not acceptable doesn't make the act of violence disappear. Wife beating will be a thing long after I'm gone and forgotten, a wifebeater top doesn't infer the person wearing it abuses his, or her wife.

Personally, I'd like to keep the term as it happens and shouldn't be swept under the carpet, also; lets not forget while we're on the subject, women who beat and mentally abuse their husbands as well. It happens, making the term offensive is like trying to cure cancer by cancelling it's name.

In the context inside literorica, I find the menace erotic, I like roleplay and being dominated and degraded. If the term was used outside these boundaries I would have a problem.

My tuppence worth:

Language matters.

While cancelling any word doesn’t make the act or the offence caused disappear - like cancelling “racism” doesn’t make racism disappear - I think there are some words (like the N-word, the P-word, etc…) that are so inherently offensive that their continued use can only be seen as normalising them or even making them acceptable. (I won’t digress into whether these terms can or should be acceptable to people on the receiving end…)

I’d never heard of the word wife-beater until fairly recently and I was immediately taken aback by it. Looking into its origin didn’t make me feel any more comfortable and I don’t think I’d use it - especially considering there’s a perfectly good alternative.

But that’s just me 🤷🏻‍♂️

Right on target, Marksman. Use of the term signals acceptance.
 
Anyone into humiliation as their primary fetish? Don't get me wrong I love so many things, but nothing puts me over the edge like being degraded and humiliated in the most cruel and mean ways. Am I alone?

cant make this up. my woman just pulled my boxers down and told me the pole vaulter is like 6 times bigger than me. she went to shower and told me to meet her in bed when she is done washing up. she already has one of her big dongs and my extension laid out on her side of the bed knowing i will taste that delicious pussy before i slide extension on. looks like i will be going first and fourth today. :)
