When you're referred to as male or female

Do you too feel like you're being condescended to by aliens, looking at you like an animal. And your behavior must be picked apart for scientifical analysis?

I actually like it. in an overly complicated world, the chance to make a binary choice, can be even calming. Until you dont identify with any of the given choices - which I absolutely understand - and then, complicated again!!!

@being simplicity is nice
I admit when someone refers to a human being just as a "female" rather than as a "woman" (I don’t hear men referred to as just "males" very often) it seems a bit dehumanizing.

I’ve been accused of overthinking that, but it’s still my first impression whenever I hear it.
I guess I’m not the only one…

@bijouxbroussard I'm glad you agree. I was beginning to believe people thought I had grown a second head out of my shoulder, they way some were reacting to me

No. But I grew up when maleness and femaleness were much more taken for granted and less questioned than they are today.

No.

I feel like I'm being polled.

Sir.

@GuiltyBiStander polled? Like your opinion? Technically I guess, it was more rhetorical

I'm more likely than not to be somewhere in that range of hormones.

Your honor.

No, why should I?

@KarenisKenziesmum that's up to you. I don't know

@caPnAhab What is this post actually asking? What point is it trying to make?
I feel like my whole personality is reduced to my genitals.
@caPnAhab yes, whenever I hear "this female" it's them refering to her only by genitals
Not even naming the animal in question. At least add female homo sapiens

@greensnacks I always did think it was a weird choice of words
@greensnacks Yes. Perhaps that’s it.
No. I think it’s just you.

@Pinkstarburst hm.. I've heard this thought before though

This one of this species wants to question our behaviors. 👽

Let us examine why!
