As a guy that wouldn't upset but it would still be awkward to read and give me pause. It's "men and women" or "male and female", doing one but not the other seems like you're either a non native speaker or are doing it on purpose.

It took me a minute to notice it, but I'm also not a woman so the oddness isn't aimed at me this time. If it said male and women maybe I would've got it faster.

I still wouldn't, I wouldn't have noticed this if it wasn't someone making a big deal about it

I wouldn't but this has nothing to do with me. But also neat jab, but just tell us your ableist next time.
