Winter is Coming

Only a certain type of person refers to a woman as a female. Makes me cringe even more to see women referring to themselves as such. It's demeaning and dehumanizing language to refer to someone as. Dudes want to clean up the community but want to refer to women as they would animals.

I'm sleep though.

*Waits patiently for ad featuring Beyonce and Taylor Swift saying wrong use of the word "female" makes people uncomdortable

Its not the word. Its always a type of guy that uses it

Your comment makes no sense. You do realize that in the military, women are called females.

 

[Somewhere For Me]

I think it's the way and context of how it is used at times.

Some guys use it in a way as if they're talking to or about a different species all together.

It's kind of like how the word Black isn't offensive in of itself but, some people will use it in a dehumanizing, objective way: "Those Black people!", "You Black people", or "The Blacks" (something about that last one really rubs me the wrong way).

Sometimes a word has enough history behind it to make it unacceptable regardless of how it's used (Like the n-word). However, a seemingly innocent word can offend the masses and destroy one's credibility just in how it's used.

Regardless of the word, people seem to forget that there can be a huge difference in response just by one's tone, infliction, body language, and context of a word or phrase.

i dont really know the answer, but i could guess that female doesnt address the maturity and agency of the woman (female could be a little girl or even a non human-species)

 

[Action Mike]

Exactly. You wouldn't call a woman you respect a female. It's a backhanded/passive aggressive way to insult women.

Yep. Insult women who deserve to be insulted.

But not for those that dont.

ill call a bytch a female whenever i want. you women can object all you want but you aint a lady or a damsel

 

[Donald Trumps Twitter]

Female is not okay
But

Feminist is okay


I am offended by all feminists.

 

[DaRealness]

If you don't carry yourself like a woman or a lady, then I will never refer to you as such. It's as simple as that.

If we're in a group I'll refer to the ladies/women what they are and those who are clearly not will get the title as female.

 

[Donald Trumps Twitter]

I wonder how they react when the application asks if they are male or female.

 

[™BlackPearl The Empress™]

Yep. Insult women who deserve to be insulted.

But not for those that dont.

You sound so proud of yourself. At least you don't deny it.

 

[Action Mike]

You sound so proud of yourself. At least you don't deny it.

Whats the proud comment meant to mean?

I agree with not insulting women I respect.

If you've never in your life called a man a Bum, Dusty etc etc. Then I understand your stance, if not then be consistant.

 

[jalamanta]

That's what black people think.

@skeetsinternal glad I made you mad, p*ssy.

 

[GunRanger]

a lot of guys are playing dumb in here.
