females

They are called girls, you know.

I always wondered why some nerds (affectionate) use the terms males/females. Maybe they're copying some science fiction book they read?

Up until like 7 years ago, the word lacked major misogynistic connotation. It used to be fairly common in certain subsects, including nerds, and it all but died in them. I wonder when “female” will become kosher again. This century is unlikely, given the Tate taint. The evolution of language is fascinating.

But they've been around for way longer than seven years no?
