men and females

🙄🙄🙄

[-] MagicShel@lemmy.zip 34 points 2 months ago

~~men & women~~
~~males & females~~
men & females

It does feel kinda weird, right?

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago

Idk what this comment means but yeah, that’s the point of the original comment. Neckbeards who call women “females” are weird

[-] orphigle@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago

What's wrong with calling men males and women females?

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 17 points 2 months ago

It objectifies women

You could say men and women or you could say male and female. Just don't mix them together.

[-] Iconoclast@feddit.uk 3 points 2 months ago

It objectifies women

By what logic?

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago
[-] Iconoclast@feddit.uk 1 points 2 months ago

That's not a helpful answer.

Literally nothing. If anyone thinks using the terms male and female together is wrong then they are an idiot.

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago
[-] dogdeanafternoon@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Read this whole thread. No one in this thread is saying man and female is normal. They are saying male and female is.

Can you articulate what’s wrong with using the terms male and female? Or are you more of a braindead, one word comment kind of guy?

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Really? You read the whole thread?

Talk about brain dead lol. Maybe you’re missing the tip level comment?

Excited to find out what super generic insult you have lined up as a comeback to this once you see that comment :)

[-] dogdeanafternoon@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Please point out what comment contradicts what I said. I’ll wait.

I assume you’re trolling at this point if you’re pretending that you can’t scroll up in a thread lol.

Also, dude… “I’ll wait”?

Please try tactics that aren’t out of the Kindergarten version of “how to be an asshole online”

[-] dogdeanafternoon@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I guess I’ll hold your hand while we get there together.

Do you understand what that comment is saying?

Dude is rolling his eyes at someone using the term man and female. Expressing his disdain for someone using terms man then female.

So again I ask, where exactly is anyone saying this is ok?

I’ll wait.

P.S. quit complaining about me being an asshole. You can’t be an ass to someone, and then get upset when they are an ass back.

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Ohhhh you’re farming downvotes. Now we’re on the same page!

[-] dogdeanafternoon@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

You care about downvotes? Are you 10?

You’ve yet again sidestepped any actual rebuttal.

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

You haven’t made a coherent point yet lol. Solid ad hominem though. Which is why I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming you’re farming downvotes.

[-] dogdeanafternoon@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Yes I have. Holy shit guy. I said no one is saying man and female is ok, pointed out why, and you’ve come back with nothing.

I literally can’t comprehend what you’re on about. You haven’t articulated a single thing yet.

Oh we got a guy who can google debate terms? Wow I’m impressed. Imagine insulting someone in every message, and then getting upset they throw it back.

You’re a joke Jeff. My last few replies have genuinely been trying to understand what you are saying, and you come back with nothing every time. You’re now blocked. :)

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

So again I ask, where exactly is anyone saying this is ok?

Could it be this guy didn’t read the post lol? Where it says man and female? Or maybe he just misread the comment he was replying to, which was the part he got whooshed on originally.

If anyone reads this, you gotta love it. Dude was accused of ad hominems and replies with more ad hominems lol.

At one time, a man seeing a female fully naked was the equivalent of a man seeing a female today too... because, you know, everyone was fully naked all the time, clothes hadn't been invented yet...

[-] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 21 points 2 months ago

Some countries still don't allow women to show their faces because its "indecent exposure" morality laws or whatever 🤦‍♂️

[-] Scrollone@feddit.it 2 points 2 months ago

Religion is truly the ruin of every civilization

[-] FriendOfDeSoto@startrek.website 20 points 2 months ago

The knees? Are you high? The ankles.

[-] GalacticPanther@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 months ago
[-] SeductiveTortoise@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago

I am so pissed I missed her OnlyFans. This was hilarious 💖😂

[-] starlinguk@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Not even that. It's a myth. Most skirts were short enough to show the ankles because nobody wanted a muddy skirt.

[-] FriendOfDeSoto@startrek.website 3 points 2 months ago

I appreciate your well actually here. I would just like to point out for future reference that any comment containing the question "are you high?" like that is most likely tongue in cheek.

[-] elvith@feddit.org 2 points 2 months ago

The ankles? Looks nervously in the rough direction of the middle east You mean her face?

[-] RoidingOldMan@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago
[-] UnspecificGravity@piefed.social 3 points 2 months ago

And seeing her breast was like seeing an MRI.

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Showerthoughts

42137 readers
125 users here now

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
