PCness. Some people go way overboard. They get so fixated on a single "wrong" word used in a posting, they forget what the whole post is actually about.
For example: I KNOW "bitching" is another word for "complaining". When I see it, female me is not bothered/offended/whatever; the person using it is NOT trying to intentionally insult me or anybody else. But a uber PCer will get up in arms about it (That's a misogynistic!!! Blah, blah, blah).
