My favorite thing about that is that, in DS9, a female ferenghi goes on to be the most successful leader of their people ever.

Meh, it's a thing in the military because female military members are segregated and have different uniforms.

A woman in the military isn't described as that, they're a "femal soldier/sailor/marine" and all their uniforms, regs, standards, and housing comes with that prefix.

Even tho "female" descriptor comes first it's to ingrain that above all else they're a service member.

It's about what the noun is.

It took a couple years till I stopped slipping, and I understand why a service member would use it. That shit gets so beat intto you that you really don't even notice it. So when you get let out into the civilian world, it's hard to break the habit. Those people would appreciate being called out that what they're doing is weird for civvies tho.

But yeah...

99% of the people using it are just fucking weird.

idk, some incels will certainly act like not getting approval from women was the worst possible thing that could happen to them, and then go and do something much worse to others

Personally I think that using sexual desirability as a point of ridicule is pretty toxic regardless of who is doing it and it's not going to help to solve the problem, but "not receiving approval from women" kind of is the worst possible thing that can happen for a lot of them, at least in their minds. The whole "men and females" thing has its roots in incel culture and they're well known to obsess over the tiniest facets of their interactions with women to the point of nausea, looking for any excuse to condemn women for not being attracted to them. They see not receiving approval from women as the ultimate condemnation of not only women, but also themselves. It's why people use it as an insult - it's effective against them.

Agreed... but hear me out. Men usualy are more sex driven and usually (not every man of course but the majority let's say) will have sex with a random woman. Women on the other hand usually (AS IN NOT EVERY WOMAN) (I'm saying that so crazy people don't come after me with the "I'm not like that") need more conection. Women will go home and not have sex if no man was interesting enough to her and she won't feel bad, man will go home with the woman he thinks it's the ugliest (again USUALLY) if she is the only one that's up to it, because for men going home alone is defeat. If you rationalize that looks is not everything for women than a man that is rejected by every woman has a lame personality while woman that are rejected by men are usually based on looks.

So yes, in this (not general but commom) scenario a man that is unfuckable is an asshole and a woman may be an asshole or may just be fat

edit: is late and I don't have my glasses so sorry for some dumb english

For female it makes it sound like a Ferengi lol:

"HOOMON FEEEMALE?"

I can multitask.

Amen to this man. People get too tied up in little words and stupid shit. So many bigger fish to fry but you'll get upset when someone uses the word female in any context.

Calling someone a "female" to their face certainly makes you unfuckable tho.

Oh, fuck off.

I'm not using my glass rectangle just to be reminded of that.

Maybe because men weren't seen as second-class citizens and aren't used to being objectified, belittled or physically and legally forced into a submissive role.

I don't like leaving serious comments on a place like this, especially since you are right that's how most men would react, just felt I had to say something since calling women 'females' is actually quite seriously wrong (even though they are afterall) and the fact that men don't experience this behaviour as something scary it makes that clear. I like this meme because it empowers women to do as they please, and I think you do not mean to defend mysogonists who want to dehumanise women, but some people might read into your comment 'well the reason woman get upset by this is because women are [something negative], while men are [something positive]'.

Women’s lib has a mere 50yrs on it and there’s still work to do. People lose sight of how new it is for women to own their own bank accounts and such.

"I doubt any male would find this offensive."

nobody said they would.

"Call em males, they are afterall. "

go ahead, next time you see ir are talking about a man or men , say "hey, male" or "males like to..." see how they respond to what has become a derogatory, sexualized term for a person in casual conversation.

the demeaning objectification is why insecure men say "female" and men are not addressed as "males".

I'm not a native speaker, but I think it's normal to request a "female nurse" but asking for a "woman nurse" sounds weird. But saying "I would like my nurse to be a woman" sounds normal again

Use woman when you need a noun, use female when you need an adjective. It's that easy
