I was just giving you some context. It isn’t some new complaint that’s just popped up. It’s also not a huge deal. You do you if you want to keep using the word “females” instead of women.
Re: the Streisand effect. Anyone getting excited that they’ve found a new “trigger” and choosing to use it despite someone else calmly suggesting that a different word is better isn’t really worth any consideration.
The term women is used in derogatory ways by misogynists too. No word is safe. Yeesh.
Trying to change this is only going to make it worse, Streisand effect kind of thing.
Dude you have a dozen people saying “use a different word” and you just keep fighting back that you want to keep using it and they’re wrong.
Go ahead buddy, keep using “females.” I can guarantee they won’t be using you.
