A Woman Being Called "Female" is Dehumanizing?

[One]

The Bluest Eye and The Color Purple.

This new toni morrison shyt be having me crying. Books written 50 years ago, author passed 6 years ago, now suddenly she’s this archetype of a man hater.

It used to be Bell Hooks fielding the accusations, always somebody just for the sake of being iconoclastic, I’ve seen people try Maya Angelou.

It's really not.... And while this is nitpicky as hell, pretending that we don't know that "female" usage is pretty redpill incel coded is just being obtuse. I have no interest in sounding like those fukking losers, and my vocabulary isn't limited enough to bother fighting this fight. Just say woman/women. It's really not that big of a deal.

I think it started as fake pimp culture and spread from there. Pimps were the original people who decided saying "women" was corny and too respectful so all "females" became bytches, hoes, broads, p*ssy and whatever else.

Oh fukking brother. Allow misandrists to make you think you’re saying something offensive by saying you have female/male friends brehs. I’ve only heard this argument from women who I know for a fact spew I hate men rhetoric or have serious issues with men, and now normal people have ran with it.

People have always used men/male/women/girl/female interchangeably in free conversation. White incels and raging feminists should not dictate how people talk. I made that point because these types very naturally “dehumanize” men in a variety of ways, but don’t see it that way. He’s my nikka but don’t call me a female, for example.

And I'll repeat what I replied to you earlier:

Put your foot down and speak up if you find it demeaning (which you should, imo)

Dont y’all get pissed over being called “African American”?

Is it ok to let the dominant group refer to you a way you don’t appreciate or not?

Ok. Didnt know nikkas dikk watch on the coli

respect your opinion. I would tell men to avoid women with this mentality because they most likely have an agenda against men somewhere inside of them we are all males and females.

Why would being referred to as a male be offensive? “You are the male in the room/situation. My male friends” I’ve heard variations of this plenty of times and never thought twice about it. I am a male, so are you

It's not offensive, but it's weird. Like I said the girl in the video went too far. But if a woman kept referring to me as a male during regular conversation, I'd be weirded out.

It comes off as red pill incel-ish the way a lot of dudes use it.

That wasn't the context here.

Like all words, you can use them in a positive or negative context.
Female, in and of itself is not an offensive word.

That is factual.

Honest question: why do you think young men - particularly young black men - started using "female" much more often in the last couple years? How come we don't see young women casually saying "male" nearly as much?

Not saying dude in the video had ill intent but there's clearly some trend following going on here. And that trend started from a weird place.
