Comment on Dude read the rules of woman only community and decided to post anyway
fushuan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 days agoMaybe it’s just me, but in female-only community, I’m using female as part of a composed adjective. I’d say male-only community too, it just feels more natural. In fact, in an earlier comment I wrote women only, and then writing man only felt SO bad that I changed both to female and male.
Now that I think about it it’s probably because I used man instead of men. I’ll change both back but OOP miiight have followed my logic? Idk

In trans-inclusive spaces we use “woman,” in reference to the gender, as opposed to female, which usually designates sex.
Kinda like a nature documentary, saying “the female meetkat seeks out her pack,” as opposed to “the woman meetkat hollers at the girls.”
