You know what they say: “It’s a ‘fraternity,’ not a ‘frat’ - I mean, after all, you wouldn’t call your ‘country’ a….”
A member of a Nevada chiropractic board has gotten himself into a touch of trouble. Doctor Donald Miner seems to have some anger issues, particularly with women. A member of the state’s chiropractic board, a position he got via appointment by the governor himself, he recently “unleashed one of the most offensive terms a man can direct at a woman.” The news story declines to be “too specific about the word,” simply saying “you all know what it is. It’s a vulgar slur, one that’s only used when a man wants to hurt a woman.”
So at this recent meeting, Doctor Stephanie Youngblood (the board’s president) raised an issue that related to Doctor Miner. He was none-too-pleased about this, and at one point muttered under his breath “what a [you-know-what].” And since there was a microphone right in front of the ever-so-classy Miner, the “[you-know-what]” was caught on tape.
Youngblood says she was “shocked, but not surprised,” because Miner has apparently lost his temper at other meetings (and in an e-mail, he once suggested that she give up her role as president of the board and instead become the “sexytery”). Miner has since submitted his resignation to the governor, so he can now go back to hating women in private, rather than at public meetings.
