why is it dehumanizing?

Animals can be male or female but only humans are men or women. Referring to people in weird, detached, clinical sounding terms is creepy and socially inept. And a bunch of incels talk about women that way because they don't like to think of them as humans.

This only applies when using it as a noun though, like "I spoke to a female today" instead of an adjective like "I have multiple female coworkers".

Even then, a more conversational English sentence would be "I work with many women" instead of "I have multiple female coworkers".

Anytime "female" is used in a more casual setting it's a little odd, but not always grammatically incorrect.

^ nothing about that makes it dehumanizing.

Marrec, calling things gross makes you sound like you have a very child-like, limited vocabulary. The fact that social study incels on Reeee use it exclusively to describe people that trigger them is the reason it makes you sound dumb.

Clearly I was using "gross" in a slightly ironic and tongue-in-cheek way because I was describing nerds, not because I couldn't think of a more appropriate term to describe gross nerds.

Here's the deal, it's an awkward, stilted word, but dehumanizing is stretching it. It's just another thing for people to lose their minds over.

And fwiw, people irl that aren't online nerds use it all the time. Read some comments threads on instagram sometimes, it's fascinating.

reset exists as a left wing stormfront equivalent, in that it's a living breathing database with which those of the opposite political persuasion can validate their strawman arguments.

This is so far from the truth. You can get muuuuuuch more left wing than ERA.

Dehumanizing in the "the topic of conversation has lost whatever human quality they may have because I'm using a clinical term to describe their gender and their gender only rather than a different term that describes their gender within humanity".

It's not necessarily a bad thing to be dehumanized.

Don't worry, I've heard plenty of gross nerds who are native english speakers call women "females" in real life.

It doesn't make it any more grammatically correct or any less creepy.

Or, I guess most importantly for this conversation, any less intentionally dehumanizing.

I don't know, Instagram is just another internet site. It may have a lot of normies but it also has a bunch of thirsty online dudes. I don't think in actual real life I've ever heard anyone refer to women as "females" like that outside of a joke specifically aimed at people who would use it like that.

It was pretty popular in bro culture while I was in college. Referring specifically to a woman who had wronged a man in some way or who some man was trying to sleep with.

I think give the word the equivalence of a racial slur or the act of intentional misgendering is probably a little to much.

Mostly because it's clearly grammatically incorrect to a native english speaker. Despite this fact, some men use it as a way to remove human agency from women when talking about them because it's just another way to reduce their status compared to men.

And generally, ERA isn't even within six months of the latest flaming hot social studies trends, they're far closer than GAF was but they also shredded the userbase to get there, I could easily still get up in there with some dankgressive shit they won't get around to banning people for until late 2019.

Actually, I think Feminist Postcolonial Milk Studies would still be mocked and locked rather than anyone take it seriously, for example.

How far up your ass are you?

I understand how powerful words can be when using them, like if I say you're such a fucking giant dad that I know that shit hits close to home.

But if I say i love watching giant dad videos, the word can just fly by.

So to say "dont fucking do that with the word" is akin to you trying to get made into a giant dad.

Why do a thread demanding people to  stop using a word in a specific context that is mostly done by jackasses (whatever they are bros, nerds or incels or whatever). I get why is deshumanizing, but is not exactly a problem that needs the snarky attitude when is a pretty specific context (asshole people).

What? It is grammatically incorrect to use it in specific contexts. This is not even arguable. Just because a word is both an adjective and a noun does not mean you use it interchangeably between syntax. That's not how language works.

Also, in my experience, the people who refer to women "females" are non-White. :doge

It's not even PUA types, there's people I'm close to who will always drop the "Female" bomb  :omg whenever they want to talk about their wymyn issues.

It's like a course-correct whenever people realize that they're sounding too sensitive. And again, these people are good people who aren't exactly concerned about their masculinity.

Maybe it's a local thing? ???

Either way, it sounds really weird, so I've never used it.

No, it's not a local thing. A bunch of second and third generation Cuban, Dominican and Puerto Ricans I know, as well as American blacks I know say that. Including the females.  :doge

It's not grammatically incorrect, stop saying that. Grammatically it is both an adjective and a noun. And it is accurate. Your problem with it is that you think it's gross, and you are being disingenuous saying it's grammatically incorrect.

What? It is grammatically incorrect to use it in specific contexts. This is not even arguable. Just because a word is both an adjective and a noun does not mean you use it interchangeably between syntax. That's not how language works.

I don't think you understand what grammar is, son.

I can say "hippos are reptiles." It's wrong, but it's not gramatically incorrect.

No, you clearly do not understand what grammar is.

To be real; far be it from me to be a prescriptivist and clearly say one thing or another is 100% grammatically incorrect, however if you were to ask any native english speaker-

What sentence sounds more grammatically correct:

"The female over there is about to buy a donut"

"The woman over there is about to buy a donut"

The majority of people would label the second sentence as more grammatically correct than the first.

The real question is why are you watching someone buy a donut.


and she probably bought an eclaire.
