it's offensive to ancient Egyptians

I'm pretty sure they don't give a shit.

I'm pretty sure that the proper term is , Royal Jerky.

Whatever will British children call their female parent now?

This sounds like white people getting all offended for millennias-dead people and wanting to change stuff out of boredom.

This is what feminism has wrought. Buncha broads with nothing better to do who were told as little girls that they should set out to change the world. This is what they came up with.

Oh, mother.

Exactly. Informally, mommy. You have to wonder why British women have been okay with commonly being referred to as an embalmed corpse.

"derived from medieval Latin Mumia, a borrowing of the medieval Arabic word mūmiya (مومياء) which meant an embalmed corpse"

Even that Chumash bitch who gave Xander syphilis?

That ain’t right.
