Comment on Which is which?
Maven@lemmy.zip 6 months agoInteresting. I didn’t know the words origins. I’ve always considered it alongside the classic English tradition of referring to women as various animals.

This isnt a uniquely female experience. Men commonly refer to their friends as “dog”. Also, in the gay community, men’s body types are equated to animals such as “bear,” “otter,” and “cub”.
