Some words have multiple definitions, which is the case of this word. All definitions of a word are not vulgar just because one is.

If I had made some type of implication that I was referring to the vulgar definition, I could understand the 2 or 3 people getting upset. I did no such thing. I merely understand that many people in the Tea Party movement have brought tea bags (the actual bag of tea, not a vulgar act) to their demonstrations, therefore causing the public at large to refer to them as teabaggers. Really, it is a simple connection. If people want to go straight for the more vulgar definition and bypass the actual definition, I can do nothing about that.

We all know what your point was and your intent. That is beside the point.

As I said before, let's agree to use an acronym like "TPM"
