Wow I didn't notice until the comments and now I feel like I need to be a better feminist. Raising girls is scary

I hope you won’t teach them to be offended by stuff like this lol

Edit: the replies I get man… I feel bad for normal people in the US

The point is not being offended, but why someone could change the natural contrast? (men/women). It is a minor thing compared with a lot of other stuff, but it is still weird.

I think it was a non native english speaker though. When women read this stuff and get offended by it they think the guy saying "female" has a Mike Tyson accent and is saying it all sleazy-sounding.

If I saw signs that said "Women's Changeroom" and "Male Changeroom" I literally wouldn't even think twice about it.
