    If there was a “Testicular Torsion” item marked as 100% male, that wouldn’t really tell me much here either.

    Uh oh

      Yes, yes. Entirely legitimate issues about gender identity aside, I think we all know my point here is strictly about biology.

        This is why I hate this whole issue. For decades we use male and man and female and woman interchangeably. But now theres all sorts of people just waiting to pounce with “Well, actually…”. And then, if you do say male, its fine. But if you say female, you get “Oh, look. Another incel saying female!!”.

        Seems like its not about communicating effectively, and more about just shitting all over things people say for worthless internet points. We all know what you meant. And it was a good point. But here we are, side stepping into this mess instead of staying focused on your point. Its all just so silly.
