    I think it’s as weird and antisocial as the next guy to call women “females” but I also think it’s weird that it’s treated like not receiving approval from women is the worst possible thing that can happen to a man when implying that women need male approval is obviously sexist

      If I feel the need to use the word “female” in that way, I am not looking for approval. I am only looking to evade “girl”/“woman”/“lady” traps [1] and trying to be as less social and as robotic as possible.


      1. “trap” as in snare trap/ bear trap etc. not the other trap. Now this was another trap. You see what I am talking about? ↩︎
