I hate this new world order where I'm not allowed to use the term 'Anglo-Saxon'. Every time I want to write a lazy general sweeping statement I have to stop and think about what I actually mean. This is so unfair.

I hate when I'm writing a sentence and I want to write a sweeping statement about 'Anglo-Saxon women' but what I actually mean is about a specific elite subset of women who were Abbesses in the centuries following the conversion period and I have to say that. Eats my word count
