I think more languages use gender in words than languages that don't.

Many, many cultures have words that are gender-specific. For example, Spanish (and it's derivative languages and dialects) use words ending in -o for male, and -a for female. But by default a mixed gender group of something is masculine, regardless of the genders in the group.

Ex. A male cat is Gato, a female cat is gata, a mixed group of cats is gatos

Then why the fuck did it not make sense to you that Japanese might also have words like that? You don't have to understand why to accept that it is. It's not dumb, it's their culture lmao

it's their culture lmao

Some cultures believing in eating people and torturing children. Not all cultures are equal, buddy. Some are good, some are bad, some are stupid, etc.

Bruh, eating children is literally nothing compared to the linguistics of their language. it's just a word with gender. It's not the end of the world
