osmn@lemmy.mltoReddit@lemmy.ml•I didn't believe some of the stories about the current state of Reddit. I was wrong.21·2 years agoAbsolutely, just the issue isn’t with the word “female” or “male”, it’s with the objectification and sexualization. We don’t have to vilify a word because it describes the subject of undue sexualization. “Person” or “human” could also be used, but I’d bet nobody would raise a stink about that.
If it were a slur or something, that’d be completely different, but this is just a term that people don’t use on a normal basis, unless they’re part of a smaller group (military, science, maybe ESL) that does use it more than the general populace. Just because you’re not used to it, doesn’t make it wrong. Vilify the person, not the normal language they use.
osmn@lemmy.mltoReddit@lemmy.ml•I didn't believe some of the stories about the current state of Reddit. I was wrong.21·2 years agoI certainly would and do describe people by “male” or “female” daily, along with everyone in the military, and anyone else that isn’t afraid of words.
It’s about how I applied to an associate engineer position, made it through 3 rounds of interviews, then got rejected only to find out they hired a senior engineer with over a decade of experience at AWS. /rant

Here’s a million Lemmy bucks
Inspired from the original Reddit silver, of course.
Yeah, no. The base price will be whatever price it is now (probably higher), then price will increase during busy times. They have zero incentive to make it cheaper, ever.
