I would like everyone to take a moment to look at the obscene headline on the filth Zinnia's linking here and explain to me why people think it is OK to talk about absolutely any group of people like that.
Like what kind of a fit would people have if someone lead off a headline

talking about, I dunno, "the extra wide dark bump-ringed areolae of call center workers" or something? Would we not all immediately demand to know how the hell that ever made it to print?
And before anyone points out the metaphorical usage of that particular phrase to refer to unchecked egos and power moves, it is quite clear that bigots ARE, in fact, literally invoking vivid physical descriptions of how they imagine the genitals of the objects of their fixations.
That said, the metaphorical usage would be a downright baffling way to talk about a demographic that constantly walks on egg-shells because we get murdered at such a high rate half of us don't live to see 30, if I recall the statistics.
