So stating a fact is derogatory?
Where the fuck do y'all get your information?
Found the incel lol
Considering I read the initial statement to my mom (60) and she said wtf?
Y'all just assume. Hope ya don't go through life with that kind of outlook you will never make friends
"My mom said it's OK" is just telling on yourself, my dude.
Lmao this incel can't stop commenting in here ๐
What do you mean by facts? How is female defined by you? Because I doubt you genetically test for XX chromosomes before you say female, right?
I think there are plenty of words that can be factual, but also unkind. And that is all that this is about. I would at the very least find it odd if someone used "human specimen" instead of calling me a man, though it is factual. I think trying to use the words that describe people the way they see themselves instead of hanging onto some logical ideal is a normal transition languages make over time and is a kinder way to be.
