In all honesty, I feel like most female-female interactions is them just trying to brag or one-up each other with random shit so they can prove that they’re “better” then the other. That’s why it feels hopeless trying to make genuine female friends.

This has very little to do with your post, but many women consider it offensive to be referred to simply as “female” since it reduces us down to our sex and women are so much more than that. Its ok if you didnt know, everyone has to learn somehow, but I thought you should know regardless

I totally get this! I have like two really good girl friends but otherwise I've only ever been friends with guys. I also feel guys are a lot easier to understand in a way. Girls tend to twist what they are saying which I already struggle to get what people mean while guys just say what they mean to say.

that's exactly what i wa going to say. you'd be friends with more women if you didn't call them females. it makes you sound like an incel. and there's a lit of women supporting women in the world. if you don't see it it's probably because in some way you're tearing them down

i find that to be categorically false. so many men are shady as fuck and will say crazy inappropriate stuff about people to each other when they think you are around/listening.

she could just mean she connects with guys better & is pinning the reason for that on smth tangible she’s seen, such as other women twisting words. I connect with women better than guys & used to find reasons for why I had that preference as a justification or smth, so I get why #4 said that, even if it’s not right

by “something she’s seen” I mean like smth online or one friend being kind of an ass (or a full-on ass) & then generalizing that. it’s easy to feel defensive about being mostly friends with one gender, & that’s likely what’s happening here

Are we really going to try and blame the disconnect between this “female” and her peers on her using a legitimate term to describe her situation on an app where her characters are limited? Completely bypassing the legit complaint that females, by nature are capable of deception, are taught to use this to compete in our society, thus making them hard to bond with. -another female with the same observation as OP.

“Women” is less characters than “female” so Im not really sure what your point is or what you are trying to add to this 5 day old post

calling others “females” is a dogwhistle for several things & reduces us down to our parts rather than who we are. idk why people think it’s a “valid term” when it’s just calling someone a “vagina-haver” 💀

Female is quite literally the textbook term for a woman. Woman. Female. Women. Females. These are synonyms. They can be used interchangeably, and just because you assume that means someone is calling you a walking talking cat with legs does not mean that was anyone’s intention, and it also doesn’t change the meaning of the word. However, I’m willing to accept that minds can’t be changed, especially in times where emotions outweighs logic.
