Political Correctness Translator App?

As we all know, political correctness is a constantly and rapidly evolving system whereby terms considered fine all of a sudden become offensive, and are then replaced by other terms, which then become offensive and are replaced yet again by other terms, etc. Well, this might be easy to keep track of for young people, but for older people, whose memories are not as sharp, this constantly changing termscape may be a bit too much to handle.

And that’s why there should be a political correctness translator, full of all the most up to date politically correct terms for everything. Simply say whatever you were going to say into your smartphone, and it will translate it into the new politically correct terminology for you.

(I wonder if there is already one of these.)
