    Does this mean two females are able to produce sexually viable offspring?

      Idk what they’re called, but IIRC that there are some all-female lizards that can reproduce either by parthenogenesis or lesbianism.

    Is female derogatory? I thought it was just a more scientific classification.

    • booly@sh.itjust.works ⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Using scientific terminology in colloquial speech is weird and creepy in most contexts. Calling kids “juveniles” and women “females” carries certain connotations, most of them bad.

    • Revan343@lemmy.ca ⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Using female as a noun (rather than as an adjective, such as in the phrase “female firefighter”, or any phrase of the format “female $noun”) is generally overly clinical and dehumanizing. Some people do it out of habit due to their profession-- usually researchers or soldiers-- but they usually say “males and females”, which while still weird isn’t the worst.

      The guys who say “men and females” are the ones you need to watch out for.

      It’s not inherently derogatory, but it does hold a connotation if you refer to women as females particularly in contexts where you wouldn’t/don’t refer to men as males.

      Acting like the opposite gender is a species on its own and calling all women hoes gave it away for me.

      If you are calling a woman “a female”, and aren’t a cop discussing a victim or a doctor writing a chart, then yes, it’s fucking derogatory.

      I thought it was just a more scientific classification.

      Scientifc classification by sex. Referring to others by their biological sex in a social context is weird and creepy. Even if you believe sex and gender are the same thing, it’s still weird to call people by their sex. “Hello, male human. Want to ingest some fried pieces of cow flesh tonight?”

      I thought it was just a more scientific classification.

      It’s a classification of sex like biological characteristics, like chromosomes, hormones, and reproductive organs.  Are you asking about that?

      Gender is a social construct. Just like race. Where you can be a Black person who is British. Or a Filipino American.

  In most contexts, you’d just say…”people”.

  Or, if you’re actually trying to make a demographic-wide statement, like how women aren’t good at video games, you’d just say:

  “IGNORE ME, I AN A SEXIST MORON.”

  Basically, the meme isn’t much meant for the word choice, it’s how often incels have statements to make on half the population.

    When did “people with vaginas” unironically become a way to refer to anyone, especially as an alternative to “female”?

    source

    • 3dogsinatrenchcoat@slrpnk.net ⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      People with vaginas is the right terminology if discussing something that pertains to vaginas. Eg. “People with vaginas should make sure to see a gynecologist regularly.” in this case, saying “women” would exclude/misgender many trans and intersex people who have vaginas but are not women, while also including some women who do not have vaginas and would not need to see a gynecologist

      well sometimes u need to refer to ppl who have a vagina, because having a vagina is somehow relevant to the topic of conversation. which in my experience comes up very rarely, so i dont have to use it very often.

      some people who have vaginas arent women, and so if the topic includes those ppl, then “people with vaginas” is the perfect phrase to use. and if talking about ppl with vaginas who all identify as women, cis women is more fitting.

      “female” is a very vague way of referring to something. some ppl use it to describe gender identity, others use it to talk about ppl with vaginas, others again use it to refer to ppl with estrogen-dominant hormonal systems, etc. etc.

      When the genital sexuals came on the scene. You know the ones who want to check everyone’s genitals to make sure they are what they say they are. The ones who are only attracted to the genitals, they could care less what is attached to them.

      For them genitals is life and they have infiltrated our government to pass laws like bathroom bills. This will allow them to examine everyone’s genitals. So far they appear to be winning and everyone’s genitals will soon be seen them.

      The Genital Safety Administration (GSA) will need to have a booth in front of our bathrooms there to perform their checks. Another genital sexual licking their lips in anticipation next time you have to drop a deuce.

    Casual erasure of post-op trans people is really fascinating to me. Like, how did our culture shift from the first thing people think about trans people being “have you had tHe sURgErY yet???” to “if you have a vagina and are a woman you are cis”?

    source

    • rivvvver@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago

      i know this is an old comment, but i wanted to reply anyway. im sorry for my comment. i hadnt thought about post-op trans ppl at all.

      to clarify however, it wasnt the “first thing” i thought abt trans ppl, im trans myself actually.

      i guess ive had too much contact with pre-op or never-op trans ppl and too little with post-op ppl to have this on my radar.

      i will try to be better in the future!

  If you call people with vaginas women, you now cross the line for trans folks.

  No matter how you phrase it, there will always be someone you will offend. In the case of the word “female” this is driven purely by some folks finding ways to use it offensively, despite it being just as neutral as “women”

  Don’t assume malicious intent every time someone uses the word “female” - most likely, they have never put any negative connotations to it and possibly never even heard of this word being used in a negative context.

  Do women wanna be called “women” tho? I don’t mean this rhetorically, but as a genuine question.

  I for example, would hate to be called a “man”. It just makes me sound old. I would prefer being referred to as “male”, or anything that isn’t the word “man”. This is applicable to a lot of my friends too. Don’t women feel the same way?
