People may find it offensive but some women are called bitches and cows which is worse in my opinion.
A bitch is the female version of a dog so calling a woman one is basically calling her a dog.

So Toad face really isn't that bad.

Rant over.

I always giggle when I read the character of Derek being referred to as a "toad" - don't know why.

You are confusing technical meaning with intended meaning.

I may occasionally call someone a ****, I don't imagine a situation where I would use it to imply the person looked like one.

EDIT:***** -Slang term for vagina

Calling someone a Toad is nothing but a bit of harmless fun. Anyone who is offended needs to get a grip .....

I don't really mind that much, but the point the OP makes it ridiculous. Like I said, two wrongs don't make a right.
