That is semantics friend. You're describing semantics. We disagree on the meaning of a word, because colloquially it means one thing while it means something else in other definitions.

Also your analogy is bad. You're describing a generalization or the formation of a stereotype.

Correcting language IS NOT how you correct ideas. You correct ideas by making people experience a difference in emotion.
