Someone who wouldn't make the following mistakes:

The "Dear editor" entry for the definition of "man" endorses descrimination, despite quoting the rules: "Entries can document discrimination but not endorse it".

"90% are useless, worthless arseholes" - that applies not to men, but rather to users of urban dictionary, which is a small subset of "people".

The entry is also duplicated several times.
Man: I am a man.

Woman: Yes I can see that and I am very impressed.
