From one woman to another
Let's not forget this one -
Girl
[ɡərl]

NOUN
1. a female child.
2.a young or relatively young woman.

Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!

Like it or not, there's been a shift in the language. I see many younger men referring to themselves as "males." Not much better but for some reason, younger people on the binary seem reluctant to term themselves "women" or "men." I don't know the reason why.

Honestly, I have also noticed (And noted) this as well. Sometimes, when you have so little to go on - but some choices of words... And he only refers to himself as a male, instead of a man, or if he only expresses that he seeks a female(s)...

You may not wish to judge over just a choice of words, but sometimes - words really do say things...

To a certain extent, I've kind of given up trying to PC on the latest in gender language. I just wish we could skip to the end where we all agree how many genders there are and what the proper language is for each. Until then as a white guy I'll just continue to feel like an outdated troglodyte responsible for all of the world's woes and if someone objects to my foot being in my mouth then I'll happily listen to them ... and then promptly file away as "will change in another week anyway." First with women's lib, then with LGBTQ, and on and on it goes.

But this particular "female" one has always bugged me, so I'm glad someone said it. It's always tickled in the back of my mind, but for fear of being clobbered I've been too afraid to ask if I was crazy feeling that way every time I hear or read it. Now I know I'm not the only one bugged by it at least. As a struggling author I've always tried to use "woman" in my books, but would question myself if I was being un-PC. Now at least I won't worry. ... Until some other woman calls me un-PC for it.

Even an herb as sweet as basil is nothing without its bite.

A female or a male is for reproduction
A woman is to feel, to share...

to me ...female is the gender. woman is the attitude /maturity and style. Lots of males....just need the female. ~~

I believe that men who insist they want females rather than women are generally part of the incel community....and they're incels for good reasons.
