This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I hate when people say "female"

[–] W3dd1e@lemmy.zip 30 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That’s because it’s an adjective. It’s like saying “I was talking to a black.” It’s icky and devalues people.

Ever notice how the same people the say “female” don’t also say “male”?

(Yes, I know female can be a noun, but in those cases, it’s typically in relation to live stock or in science.)

>show her my favorite song

Do you also go to the zoo and complain that the monkeys are throwing shit? :P

[–] _cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 days ago (2 children)

ask yourself why you never see green texts where they refer to people as "male"

They don’t say male because that is encapsulated in “be me.” It’s males all the way down.

I'm not sure why you think I should be asking myself that

[–] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

No, but I also think comparing women to monkeys throwing shit shows how fucked up you are.

You respect women; you tolerate monkeys throwing shit.

In this situation, your metaphor is the "monkey shit."

Tf are you talking about? They're comparing 4chan users to shit-slinging monkeys. How did you misread it that bad???

[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If you think I compared a woman to a monkey throwing shit, you seem to have misunderstood something

"Do you also go to the zoo and complain that the monkeys are throwing shit? :P"

It's in the comment chain, incel. Your words, not mine.

Are you also going to come to a community that doesn't dehumanize women and get upset when they don't like you?

[–] Outwit1294@lemmy.today -5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

People who work in biology say it naturally. Women is a very weird word for them.

[–] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

I don't think most women who work in biology would agree.
