It reads likes a parody — but it’s not: PETA wants to change SF neighborhood’s name
San Francisco’s Tenderloin district is not a nice place, and never has been: hence, the name “Tenderloin,” which is short hand for the fact that it is City’s soft underbelly. PETA, though, just hates the thought that a neighborhood could be named after a cut of meat, so it’s taking a stand.
