Something I've noticed [View all]

I think my nephew who lives with us (I live with my elderly parents - father has dementia - and developementally disabled brother in a house I paid off for them back when I made a lot of money) is an MRA. He spends all of his time online gaming etc. Like never, ever leaves the house. Doesn't pay for a thing either - or clean up after himself. A real joy to live with but my mother won't let me kick him out.

Anyway, the point to this is -- calling women "females" is that a thing of the younger generation or an MRA thing? It just strikes me as weird. And it's something I see from MRAs online.

He has other tendencies that make me think he is an MRA, not just the females thing.

But it's said with a derisiveness that I do associate with MRAs.

So is calling women "females" an MRA thing or just a changing language thing that I have not kept up with.
