examples: Maybe the authors are London-centric, as some believe? Liverpool gets tagged with a mis-placed 'Street' at one point, while the WCML is described as "the main route for passengers to major cities in the Midlands and North West; Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool". No mention of southbound travel or Glasgow or Scotland. [Liverpool Street is a major rail terminus in London.]
Decisions made at the DfT inevitably reflect a London-centric experience, with a comparison being made with the closure of ticket offices throughout the London Underground network. This is not judged to have been detrimental, but there is a simple zonal fares system that is hardly comparable with the range of ticket types used on the national rail network.

examples: In 1998, Andrew Wakefield published a study indicating that the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine could potentially cause autism. It was later determined that his research was based on doubtful data, but not before it ignited what has become a years-long war between so-called “vaxxers” and “anti-vaxxers”.
Stein hopes to capitalize on the presence of Sanders backers who won’t back Clinton. So far, her attempts have been rocky. Most Sanders backers say they’ll vote for Clinton, and she’s hit turbulence over her flirtation with vaxers.
Even among the very hesitant if the cost of vaccine denial is understood in human terms, uptake has been shown to be increased. Parents, vaxxers and anti-vaxxers alike, want the best for their children.

One proposal, a favorite of anti-vaxxers, would require doctors to make vaccine package inserts available to families, in the expectation, pro-vaxxers say, that the list of chemical ingredients and possible side effects–included on all inserts for all drugs–would scare parents into saying no.

Senses:
gloss: Any of various strains of thought in opposition to the Enlightenment or its ideals.
pos: noun
examples: Indeed, a common criticism of the Enlightenment project—that it is a Western invention, unsuited to the world in all its diversity—is doubly wrongheaded. For one thing, all ideas have to come from somewhere, and their birthplace has no bearing on their merit. Though many Enlightenment ideas were articulated in their clearest and most influential form in 18th-century Europe and America, they are rooted in reason and human nature, so any reasoning human can engage with them. That’s why Enlightenment ideals have been articulated in non-Western civilizations at many times in history.² But my main reaction to the claim that the Enlightenment is the guiding ideal of the West is: If only! The Enlightenment was swiftly followed by a counter-Enlightenment, and the West has been divided ever since.³ No sooner did people step into the light than they were advised that darkness wasn’t so bad after all, that they should stop daring to understand so much, that dogmas and formulas deserved another chance, and that human nature’s destiny was not progress but decline.

Soccer players may "head" the ball for tactical purposes, while football players are barred from "leading" with their heads. Laving aside offensive and defensive lineman who do so every play. Also, most linebackers.

Etymology: The origin of the slang word zaddy, an assibilation of daddy, is unclear.

He has to have swag and sex appeal and look sexy and attractive", this meaning is the most common. Other published instances of the word only become more frequent around 2018 but perhaps influenced by by American rapper Ty Dolla Sign's 2016 song by the same name.

Furthermore, antis are angry at the pedophilic undertones in a relationship between Kylo and Rey and the large about of abuse and rape/non-con based fics in the ship.

Anti-shippers tend to have the opinion that problematic art on the internet will be consumed by people too young to have the critical thinking skills to distinguish what is okay in real life versus in fiction, so it is best either not created at all or created in private.
