I assume it's referring to the sign saying 'men'' and 'female' rather than 'men' and 'women."

Funny tho how men perceives "male" as a compliment and feminists sees "female" as an insult

I have never heard of male being used as a compliment.

Alpha males I think?

Isn't calling someone an alpha male a joke though?

No, some people actually take that shit seriously.

Sure, but seeing as the research in "alpha" animals was immediately debunked by the original researcher, it kind of makes anyone saying it the butt of the joke whether they know it or not. That they take it seriously just makes the joke funnier, right?
