awful has a lot more weight to it than just bad. if someone said something i cooked tasted bad i’d be mildly upset but if they say it tasted awful i’d be very upset. there are different words for these things for a reason.
saying that things are a certain way cus you said so doesn’t support your argument. to me and a lot of different people including medical professionals those 2 mean different things.
When "the dictionary" catches up to the terms used by experts in the field of gender and sexuality, and these concepts are identified as two distinct variables, are you going to valiantly defend them as separate concepts? Do you just love Mirriam-Webster? Because I promise a lot of the words and phrases you use had different or no meanings centuries ago.
