No. I don't think it's used on people with disabilities, and if it is, then shame on the people who use it like that. But there are able-minded adults who behave inappropriately and should know better, and man/womanchild is a word we use to describe them. Just because a word isn't exactly nice doesn't make it a slur.

Oh, I have no problems shaming the dudes who act like "manchildren" I just wonder about the words use given how the word came into existing.

It did start off as an offensive term against disabled people, after all.

I didn't actually know that history and totally missed that when I read your original post. Interesting. Hmm.

Got any actual citations to support that?
