All you lovely fab people.
Tell me honestly, how does it make you feel when someone calls you a male/female?
Are you okay with it?
Do you think it's a little dehumanizing?
Personally when anyone calls me a female instead of a woman it makes me feel like either some owned pet of female gender or a dry box to tick when you're filling out application forms.
To me it's one of the most impersonal ways to approach a human being be it a "male" or a "female"
What are your thoughts? |

I think it gives an insight into the person, as in if they're genuinely interested in a connection which makes for a better experience, or they just want to fuck to satisfy their own needs |

I think it depends in the context. I think a lot of people dont even consider negative connotations of the word.
However the Incel community have definitely appropriated the word Female. For example, a 'girl, woman or lady', might suggest a person with a certain level of maturity or class. But the word 'Female' is more dehumanizing and sums them up entirely by their sex, like some kind of farmyard animal.
If I see someone 'looking for Females', I'd look a bit closer at the context and try see if there was any deeper meaning. |

You are right. For instance, a man may be referred to as being male. A woman may be referred to as being female. However you seek a man or a woman. You do not seek a male or a female. Never bothers me though if used incorrectly. |

Imo it's another over-thought pc language nonsense. I guess it's the expression 'looking for males/females' that bugs some. It's a sex site and we all have gender preferences. It's a way of expressing it. I wouldn't read too much of a whole attitude into it.

I agree with this reply...though sometimes in messages we will be asked " am I chatting to the male or the Fem?"...and I would always answer as "the woman", not "the Fem". It doesn't bother me to read it on people's profiles though |

It's bit odd when someone addresses you directly like that, I agree. But again it's just to clarify who he/she's talking to. I'd say nobody ever got a message 'hi sexy female/male, wanna fuck?'    |

"Female, girl, woman, chick, bird, doll.
Male, bloke, fella, man.
All amount to the same thing.
I'm sure if someone is looking for something between the lines they would be more specific"
I forgot lady & Gent lol |
