Re: "Female"

Eh, it's only disproportionate use that bothers me. If someone is using "males and females", sure, whatever, but it is shockingly common to see "men and females", and vanishingly rare to see "women and males". And - this is just my experience of course - when someone calls men "men" but women "females" they're almost always asstardedly sexist as fuck.

Really, anyone calling men "men" (as opposed to the equivalent of whatever they're calling women: girls/boys, ladies/gentlemen, males/females, chicks/dudes) is generally a sexist dickhole, in my my experience:

"Men" and "ladies" has a similar, but more patronizingly old-timey as opposed to neo-misogynist with a fedora on Reddit inference.

"Men" and "girls" is less patronizing or neckbeardy, more chest-thumpingly brotastic. Ditto "men" and "chicks".

"Women" being the equivalent of "men", that's obviously fine.
