I never implied worse or bad. It’s just a commonly used acronym that’s distracting from the message.

Yes. There are also plenty of people who are OK with being insensitive, or with offending half their userbase. And that's their choice.

But at the same time, giving the author a heads-up that they might inadvertently sort themselves in that group is, I think, a kindness.

It's more along the lines of BOOGER or URINE than being insensitive or offensive. Some names are good and some are not. A name like that is not.

Eye of the beholder, no?

As a woman, my first reaction to something being named "PMS", I'd book it in the "insensitive" category. I know lots of other women will too. We've heard a few too many PMS remarks from men to not have a reaction.

It's not just insensitive if it's insensitive to you.

I stand corrected. I've never heard anyone consider it insensitive, but if so, the name is that much worse.
