Women and Animals

Something I've noticed a lot recently are that women are often compared to meat or animals. A woman's breasts are called "a rack." Women are often called "chicks." Women are also called "bitches," a term used for female dogs. Women having a fight are said to be having a "cat fight." Cougars, while a large wild cat, is also a term used to describe older women interested in having sexual relations with younger men. Interestingly enough, almost no such terminology is used for men. And such language promotes the notion that women are lesser than men, as are animals.
