Disclaimers

So today I found out that the origin of the word Chauvinism comes from this French dude Chauvin who was fanatically devoted to Napoleon Bonaparte. From the original meaning, which is fanatical patriotism to a country/leader, today's definition is "an extreme and unreasoning partisanship on behalf of a group to which one belongs, especially when the partisanship includes malice and hatred towards a rival group". Or more commonly in male chauvinism, which is the belief that men are superior to women. 'MCP' is a tag to used to describe men who believe or display an attitude that women are inferior to men, speak to women as inferiors, or treat women negatively based solely upon their gender.

Guess I don't think of JD as a chauvinist anymore.
