This is a very complex question. No simple answer will do. Mostly it depends on relationships. Clearly someone must needs have been offended. There are many factors. What is the gaffers appearant sex, what is the gaffers self selected sex, what is the gaffers sexual orientation, what is the gaffers political affiliation, is the gaffer physically attractive, or ugly. What is the gaffers nationality?, Race? Is the gaffer considered to be extra intelligent? Is the gaffer exceptionally wealthy? Next we must apply the same set of criteria to the offended party (gaffee). It is only through a careful analysis of relationships between the two that we can establish the stick ability of the gaffe. Il give you an example to make it easy. Todd Akin "legitimate rape" Whopie Goldberg "not rape-rape" Now that one was easy, but you can see the template.
Here's what Wikipedia says about a gaffer: " The term gaffer originally related to the moving of overhead equipment to control lighting levels using a gaff" I was actually just wondering last night what ever happened to the old focus stick that we used to have in the theater to focus the box booms. Yes, it's all about trying to control the environment.
