Typically when someone says “females.” They are talking in a weird or sexual manner, at least in my experience. It’s just a reaction to that trend, but it must be said that not everyone who says “females” instead of “women” is a creep/gooner. But a large percentage of creeps/gooners use the word “females.”

Some people think that calling a woman a “female” is like dehumanizing and objectifying

It’s dehumanizing, men call women “females” because it makes them sound less human and is also used to spread false information about women under the guise of biological fact

It shouldn't be an uproar. However y'all have gotten super stupid about gender. I'm all for regular male, female and intersexed. That's all it needs to be

Which makes no sense to me for two big reasons 1:never heard any of them say “male” is dehumanizing and 2:so am I humanizing animals by calling them a girl/boy or dehumanizing kids

It all depends on the context when a man calls a woman a female they are usually based on my own experience and views down grading or talking less of that individual. But it depends on each person individually opinion on the term. Some people are okay with it and some are not.

Like how not everyone who uses the number 88 in something like a username is a Nazi, but a lot of Nazis put 88 in their name.
