Politically Incorrect Alphabets

Remember the traditional alphabet chart? A is for Apple and B is for Boy .. well have you ever wondered why is it an Apple and why a Boy? Many meanings here, Apple to give religious basis (Adam and Eve and the forbidden fruit) .. B is for Boy but G is not a Girl .. does that ever bother you? Well here's a list of Politically Incorrect Alphabets, that speak their mind.

Wow! LOL!

You know, Nabeel, really never thought about "B is for Boy, but G is not a Girl"...guess my Mom never used traditional alphabet books to teach us the english alphabets....

Maybe "G for Goat" was equivalent to "G for Girl" to the ones who first came out with the alphabet book....

Sugarlips said...

This is funny :) & in real politically incorrect...Never thought about B for Boy & G is not for girl so it never bothered me but from now on it will :(

That is so true "Alpabets" that speak their mind.

What Jas Bhambra said "G" for goat made me smile..!

Stay Beautiful...!!

Nabeel, did you notice how some subjects can afraid everybody ?
For instance, I did a post speaking about white hairs, and my father who has so beautiful white hair and that it was 18 years he disappeared.
Not many people where putting a comment.
You know why ?
Every body is afraid with death, illness, oldness...
And however, all of that belong to life, don't you think so ?
Beauty or youngness or wealth, that's not all.

Oh ! I've just seen that you honoured me with creating a link to my blog.
Yes, that's a great honour for me, because I've much respect for you, you are a clever guy, so sensitive and so on. Yes, a great honour.

oulala!! i can imagine a lot of examples for this alphabet! it's "strange" to check how social structures (educational system, etc) condition us to fixed conducts and conventions in order to keep the rules which move political-social-religious correct operation...

samrina said...

:) nice & interesting.

Takecare

Tigersan said...

Me like "V" is for "Vampire" and "S" is for "Skeleton" :)

kathi said...

Even the sickest of humor makes us laugh, huh? LOL, made me laugh.

Trailady said...

Funny, in a twisted way.

My kids learned the ABC's with animals. A is for Ardvark, Z is for Zebra, etc.

Have a great day!!

Art said...

Some of those are funny - some are a little scary...

Nabeel said...

Jas - yes I know .. it's something to think about though .. educational books go through a rigorous publishing laws (educationaal guidelines)

Gangadhar, Suzanna, chelle - thank you

Nida - hmm @ school .. what classes are u taking this semester?

Sugarlips .. well no matter if B is for a boy or G is for a girl .. but to me, S will always be for Sugarlips :) and goat babies are sooo cuteeee .. they make great and fun pets.

Kayla - I agree soo much .. why not L for Loveliness, B for Buttercups .. C for Cuty pie .. I feel ya !

Kimanda .. I know, very thought provoking .. not many people ever think about this kinda stuff.

Madem - Everything is a sociall contructed reality .. a table is a table and not a chair because humans made it that way. Fashion, clothes, the way we do things .. everything is a socially constructed reality.

Kathi - there are more sick things in this world than these alphabets .. Infact the alaphabets are not sick at all .. they are correct (politically incorrect)
