Why do women get so pissed off when they're called 'Poppet'? It's almost like a trigger word to send them into a banshee like rage

I am not so sure, it looks at what offends the opposite sex and so could be classified as political due to the rise of sexual equality etc

Poppets are also used as kitchen witch figures.
