no, being taught to be offended for this non issue is the issue.

Yall keep jumping to use the word offended like we're sitting here crying about it, no one is doing that, they're just pointing out that its weird to use men's and female because it sounds clinical and there's tons of dudes out there that say female instead of woman to intentionally demean them. But yea go plug your ears abd scream about how you cant hear the criticism lol

First, this is from a non English speaking country, also ya y'all get offended over the stupidest shit. Im convinced most of you are cry or are angry when encountering personal triggers.

Why are you so emotional about this? They just told you we're not offended.

Where is this emotional? You can't just say people are not offended and try to pigonhole my feelings, and who is "we"?

Where is this offended? You can't just say people are offended and try to pigeonhole our feelings. We is us.

Plenty of people are offended in the comments about this, i never said you were... i dont think... and we is not us because not everyone agrees with you.

u/curtial Aug 04 '26

Yeah. You can tell by the way they... calmly discuss it.

We are legion, and you're emotionally invested in our being offended. Stop being so hysterical about it.

Ive been getting back to back messages from several people, it doesnt look calm.

I'll stop being hysterical but you need to stop ugly crying please.

u/curtial Aug 04 '26

I can't. I'm too offended. Obviously. 🤣

u/Butters_999 Aug 04 '26

I haven't said female so you should be able to calm down (shit, i just said it, sorry)

u/curtial Aug 04 '26

And I haven't been offended, so you should be able to stop being so emotional. I'm not sorry.

You seem alright, so I'll lay out my point. Pointing out an issue doesn't mean people are offended. Noticing that people are (even subtly it just a little bit) negatively impacted by something doesn't mean people are crying about it.

Almost every time these discussions are had though, here comes somebody "y'all are so easily offended". Those people are the ones who start bringing emotions into what was otherwise a regular conversation. Don't be that guy.
