seeing women referred to as “females” outside of a medical/forensic/etc. setting gives me such an ick, esp when you say “men” instead of “males”in the same sentence/convo. idk how to explain it

I made a post abt this on here and it blew up, my take is pls dont say females FOR UR SAKE U SOUND STUPID, men who regularly interact w women dont hate us enough to use words we have already said we dont like, the word “females” just sounds so nerdy, “a female spoke to me at work today mother 🤓☝️”
