“of the feminine species”
Uh, do you want to explain to this guy what a species is, or do I have to?
Trans women want to be referred to as just women, and biological women don’t want to be referred to as Cis women, so other than female, what is there?
I agree that I get the ick from female when referred to by certain men, but at this point, I don’t see another option.
Is this why they always ask how to define “woman”?
If someone asks you to a define a women, chances are they never met one in real life.
Sexism is a helluva drug.
I identify with this unironically as a low conscientiousness male feminist.
Girl, woman
Meanwhile: males, dudes, guys, homies, fellas, bois, bros, lads, laddie, mates, geezers, chaps, gents, boss, hoss, cheif, buddy, pal, son, sonny, sonny boy, muchacho, hombre, old timer, Mac, Joe…
“Yeah what’s up?”
I don’t think we need to cancel Guys and Dolls just yet.
I love that half of these are fully gender neutral terms of endearment in Australia 😂
Honestly a lot of them start out as or still contextually imply “males” in the US, but can be used gender neutrally as well now too. Like “how you guys doing” vs “hanging out with the guys.”
It’s interesting isn’t it? “Guys” can include women, and can even be a group of only women, but you can’t talk about a single woman as a guy - “I snogged this gorgeous guy last night”.
Dudettes
I love that this dumb dumb made a post on reddit. There are search engines, large language models, and the good ole thesaurus to find words that are synonyms. Figure. It. Out.
As a man who likes fedoras, this stereotype offends me. Sadly, it’s an accurate description most of th etime.
Usually it’s a cheap Trilby anyway.
You need to get big into two tone ska, then the fedora is socially acceptable again.
Usually the Redditors wear the fedora without knowing how to pair it correctly with the rest of their outfits, so don’t worry, if you wear a nice attire and a fedora people won’t get you confused with the guy wearing an ahegao t-shirt two sizes too small and cargo shorts.
And I can hear it spoken with a lisp that you get when talking with a mouth full of prosthetics. Pfemales
‘feminine species’ 😭😭😭
TIL that apparently we’re an entirely different species. Homo sapiens and lesbo sapiens?
That kind of fella would use something derogatory instead of sapiens for women. That is, assuming they even knew what sapiens stood for in the first place.
A reliable source on TV told me you can’t go wrong with
Ladies
In most contexts, you’d just say…”people”.
Or, if you’re actually trying to make a demographic-wide statement, like how women aren’t good at video games, you’d just say:
“IGNORE ME, I AN A SEXIST MORON.”
Basically, the meme isn’t much meant for the word choice, it’s how often incels have statements to make on half the population.
You remember how everyone just used to say women 10-20 years ago? I guess that’s woke now. So much for conserving.
Woman is transphobic.
Lmao nice try rightoid.
Why yes, famously trans women hate the word women so much they use it on themselves /s
But cis-women do hate trans-woman, they invented the term “Transmaxxing”
The multiple of “trans woman” is “trans women” just like with “cis women” not “trans-woman”.
There’s also no dash in either “cis women” or “trans women”, it’s not half-cis half-woman like Spider-Man, it’s just a descriptor adjective, like “cis woman” and “trans woman”.
“Cis” and “Trans” of course come from the Latin prefix “this side of” such as in Cislunar Orbit or Translunar Injection (TLI) in astrodynamics or the Cisalpine Gaul in historical geography or in Cis/Trans isomerism in Chemistry.
“Transmaxxing” is primarily used by incels that believe transition can be a way out of their inceldom, similar to gymmaxing etc., while I’ve never heard of anyone actually transitioning for such silly reasons as it’s a helluva thing to do, I doubt that this would work out in their favour.
Additionally while many cis women do hate trans women, statistically speaking they are less likely to be against trans rights than men, especially on issues like trans women using the women’s bathroom or gyms or other issues that upset some cis people like healthcare access for trans children via either hormones or puberty blockers.

Let me know if you need further help.
No no no, It was coined by Cis White women to trash Trans-Women, PERIOD Stop scapegoating incels for everything & stop being a sex-obsessed creep (who wants to peek at other’s sex-life) as well, get some therapy
