Noun vs adjective

[othellia]

...is pretty much how I look at it.

Female, to me, is a descriptive term similar to black or white or gay.

It's fine to say things like "a black family moved into the house across the street" or "that white person was really rude" or "gay teachers usually have to hide their personal lives."

But on the flip side it sounds off, to say the least, when someone says something like "some blacks moved into the house across the street" or "that white[y] was really rude" or "gays who are teachers usually have to hide their personal lives."

So there's that. Plus like I think some other mentioned, people and articles that use males/females equally don't bother me all too much, but many - especially gaming and tech articles - seem to love to use a men/females combo, usually with a nice dollop of sexism. (That Marvel tshirt fiasco will never quite leave me.) That kind of usage can end up feeling a bit, well, othering.
