Whatever, I'd love to hear you say that to a transgender person's face. See what that get's you. But that's besides the point. You're obstinate, I'll give you that. But that does not make anything you say true. See, here is truth. The word gay used to mean happy, now it means happy and it means someone of the homosexual persuasion. See how that works? How one word means two completely different things. Here are some examples of contranyms. By the way contranyms are words with completely opposite meanings. Like the words sanction, clip, bill, certain, off, mean, et cetera ad nauseum. You can't tell me words don't change when there is irrefutable proof otherwise. You're correct when you say words are powerful but only a fool locks himself in a box and refuses to even acknowledge what's around him. The true power of words is their malleability. Hard as stone one second and like putty the next. Your views are tired and obsolescent and you're going to get left behind.

What you're saying would be true, except the word "she" is used [i]every[/i] time a Hive Witch is mentioned... If "he" was used even once, you'd be correct, but since Bungie and/or Activision imply all witches are she's(as is true to the definition), then we can assume all warlocks(the dictionary male version) are male.

No. You're making an assumption of causation. That because one thing here is this way must mean that over there is as well. Hive Witches aren't actual Witches. This is all creative license. The creator determines the rules of their creation. That's their prerogative. And whatever those rules are they are never wrong unless the creator says they are or they're convinced they are. If I wanted I could create a world where hell is above and heaven below. Where good is evil and evil good. And I would be right. In the context of my world. My point is the world is always in flux and change happens whether people admit it or not. Especially, in how we view and interpret the world around us. And it's not a bad thing. Not always anyway.

I suppose so. It just struck me as odd that they kept their Witches to the book definition, leading me to think the same should be true for "Warlock" and "Hunter". Although, I can't really say the same for Exo's since they're completely original as far as I know. (Except maybe that they end in "o" as a traditionally male characteristic of latin-based language...but I can't really prove it)
