Alright, serious questions. What exactly the fuck is people's beef with the term "female" used to refer to, well, FEMALES?

Was bio [i]that[/i] hard of a fucking class that biological terms give you flashbacks?

You do realize that not all females are women and not all women are females, right?

In order to specify exactly what group one is referring to "female" is highly necessary in these days and times.

Or is it the specification itself that people have an issue with? Does the distinction make people uncomfortable?

I don't fuckin get it man 😒 😕

You never hear men griping about being called male. I get that that doesn't happen as much but if it did I assure you only the pussiest of us would care.

My guess is that in things like rap music, entertainment and sometimes IRL, "females" gets used In a derogative and/or lascivious manner.

@GeistInTheMachine "female" would be the nicest word ever used to describe women in a rap song.

@CestManan Yup, but that doesn't mean they don't use negative intonations with the word "females" to get the point across and maintain plausible deniability.

The tone and context says it all.

Especailly in rap and so on, women are sort of to be overcome, obtained and bragged about, rinse and repeat.
