Men: Why You Should Call Us Women, Not “Females” or “Girls”

<p>If you are unintentionally interchanging the terms, &ldquo;women,&rdquo; &ldquo;females,&rdquo; and &ldquo;girls,&rdquo; it serves you to be more conscious of the weight and connotations of these words. Also, note that being dismissive when a woman calls you out for using the terms &ldquo;female&rdquo; or &ldquo;girl&rdquo; also is not ok. You may think a woman is making a fuss out of nothing, causing drama, or being petty in &ldquo;nit-picking&rdquo; words.</p> <p><strong>But please, to the men who do not see what is wrong with the terms &ldquo;female&rdquo; or &ldquo;girl&rdquo; when referring to a woman, please, I plead with you, try considering a woman&rsquo;s perspective and the larger, broader cultural context.</strong></p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/illuminations-mirror/men-why-you-should-call-us-women-not-females-or-girls-8148918b7b80"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
