I'm unsure what is hard to understand. The problem is people talking like they're mentally retarded just to avoid stepping on the toes of special snowflakes. There. Clear? I am getting tired of people falling over themselves to avoid a tiny group going "eeeekk!!!" for no reason.

You can just say "men". That IS the right word, you don't insult anyone.

I'm not the one requiring special treatment

You’re the one getting flustered and demanding everyone else use the words that make you comfortable, rather than the words they prefer.

What do you think “special treatment” means exactly?

[–] reverendsteveii@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Special treatment is when people don't do what he wants, and just being normal is when everyone bends to his will.
