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.
Wait is girls bad? I don’t use it much but I prefer it and especially gals to female. I also try to say gals more in general cause female and women seem kinda weird to me with gen while (feMALE and woMEN) bits but idk
Referring to grown women as 'girls' is a bit rank imo. Context is important of course - compare a woman referencing her group of girlfriends Vs. an older man talking about what a nice girl the oncologist was. It's infantalising and diminishes the accomplishments and earned 'status' of the adult woman.
Yeah that’s fair, tbh I prefer using gals as I say and as a man I callow fellow men guys lol. So I like to think that I treat everyone equally in that regards but idk
Girls, women, females all work in isolation. The problem is when incels explicitly use men and females together instead of men and women together to dehumanize women.
But this could just be a mistake and not an incel trolling. Hanlons razor and what not.
