Words hurt

              Recently Bill Cosby was accused of rape by at least 12 women. Now what if these women were lying? Then it would hurt their credibility and his legacy. Is that worth your 15 minutes of fame? I'm not saying who's lying or who I believe because no body was there except for the women and Bill. I wonder who these women are and why they waited so long to step forward if what they say is true. Why wait to come out after the statue of limitations is up? That doesn't make sense.
 
               All this got me thinking about how words hurt. It can be something like accusing someone of something or calling someone one a name that will hurt their feelings. At job corps the b word, the n word and other derogatory terms were dropped so often that if I had a dollar for every time that was used I wouldn't have to work ever! Those words are hurtful and shouldn't be used to describe someone.
 
              I think the world would be a lot better especially for women if derogatory words were cut out of our everyday use
