I think you're wrong there Jonathan. The argument is that calling it "expert sex change" is like deriding eBay as "eGay" (I know I had to change a letter there: it's similar enough to be the same kind of thing.)
It's misusing something important and personal as a simple insult. It's impolite to use something like "sex change" as an insult. It's not "political correctness gone mad," it's good manners, and I think using it shows the author is either thoughtless or bigoted.
It is also a weak, ridiculous and puerile insult that adds no value to any debate. If Experts Exchange was awesome, we wouldn't criticise it for its name. We'd probably not even have noticed.
