| | Pejorative - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Although pejorative (adj.) means much the same thing as disparaging, the latter term may be applied to a look or gesture as well as to spoken language— in the evocative language of gesture, it may not be easy to distinguish a disparaging gesture from a dismissive or merely skeptical one, however. | | | Dyslogisms such as "pea-brain" and "bottom-feeder" are words and phrases essentially pejorative by their nature. | | | This happened with the terms Quaker, Yankee and Ham radio operator, which were originally slang insults but came to be worn with pride. |

| | Note that labeling a political slogan "pejorative" is not necessarily a comment on its inherent truth or falsity, though using "pejorative" to describe a slogan almost always denotes an opinion that it is primarily an attack. | | | The respective sides describe themselves as "Pro-Choice" and "Pro-Life", and describe their opponents in pejorative terms as "A Culture of Death" and "Anti-Choice". | | | In other words, by controlling definitions and adssociations, the sloganner attempts to influence or even control debate by changing the ground on which it is conducted. |

| | Peter Suber, "Review of Mason, Philosophical Rhetoric" |
| | If the pejorative model holds that argument serves truth and rhetoric serves only persuasion, then one of its essential moves is to sever argument from rhetoric absolutely. | | | His first argument seems to be that Plato's pejorative view of rhetoric presupposes an absolute truth and an avenue for attaining it that bypasses all rhetoric (still conceived as the art of persuasion). | | | According to this model, argument serves truth and rhetoric serves persuasion. |

| | Because of its origins in a feminine nickname, sissy is also a pejorative for a boy or man to indicate or imply that he is like a sister, that is, effeminate and fails to behave according to the traditional male gender role. | | | This pejorative may be given to anyone as an insult. | | | Several variations, such as "sissy boy" or "sissy baby", exist and any term can become pejorative or insulting if preceded by sissy and applied to a boy or a man. Sissy is the male converse of tomboy, but has none of the latter's positive connotations. |

| | The ‘independent ideology for the labor movement’ is the set of those attitudes and beliefs which would best enable the workers to restructure society in their own interest. | | | This set of beliefs may be quite effective in enabling them to satisfy their aggressive desires without fear of retaliation, but if we allow it to count as an ‘ideology in the positive sense,’ the distinction between an ideology in the positive sense and an ideology in the pejorative sense will become blurred. | | | If we are looking for a characterization of it that will make ‘positive ideology’ a separate category, distinct from ideology in the pejorative sense, it isn’t sufficient to say that a positive ideology enables the agents effectively to satisfy some of their needs and desires. |

One even hears insulting words themselves called "pejoratives," which presumes that an insult always makes the situation worse. | | | Dear Word Detective: I am mystified by the word "perjorative."
