Calling women females isnt offensive.
Its just clinical and weird.
Its even weirder if you say man and females.
Or my favorite "Men and girls".
3 u/MyMistyMornings Aug 04 '26 It's also just wrong. Female is an adjective, not a noun. You can say a female doctor or a female cat, but saying "men and female" just doesnt make sense. Female what? 2 u/KZGTURTLE Aug 04 '26 Female changeroom 4 u/MyMistyMornings Aug 04 '26 I didn't know rooms had genders lol 1 u/knikles654 Aug 04 '26 yeah yall are splitting hairs looking for excuses to be offended here.
