Now that I have your attention... Strange Famous is not wrong. There are very good reasons to alter language... Some words once taken for granted are now deemed inappropriate.
It is all well and good for Stare at the Sun to announce, "its something called THE GOD DAMN ENGLISH LANGUAGE"... but the fact is languages are not immutable... they change through usage -- all the time.
Get over the fact that some people prefer to use humankind or mankind or letter carrier or mail man or any of these changes that annoy you.
Time and usage will wash away this petty bickering over a language that doesn't care what any individual thinks.
