As a woman this is stupid. You can dislike it, but some people like it. Blanket calling it sexist like you’re the judge of what’s moral is fucking stupid.

i agree with the fact that some women like it but trying to «compliment» someone by calling them cute also is just plain weird to me since children and pets are usually what's described as cute. women are not weak vulnerable pets that men can just own.
