Strange that they would have to take that word out. Breathed must have decided on his own to change it. Considering that he had Steve Dallas bathing in the nude with a young boy, changing that word seems particularly strange.
I’ve seen a lot worse, for example, in C’est La Vie. That’s why I thought it might be an individual thing. Maybe they consider the typical age of the reader. Hmmm…wonder what that makes us?
It makes us cantankerous old f@rts who don’t believe in political correctness, pampering anyone older than 5 and male, and who find solidarity in our opinion that nobody has any guts anymore.
Can’t I pamper them just a little bit? I’d hate to completely give up my social life just to be considered sufficiently cantankerous to be respected by my peers.
… is available in the collection Loose Tails. That book's preface implies that many changes were made for the original newspaper run (which was back in the early '80s, after all).

So, you think it’s okay to pamper females over 5? You’re just not cantankerous enough yet, Roger.
