@Elle – that’s what I mean. You say “call me any name under the sun”. I don’t feel that way because words have power.
@NWSO – There are so many men that use this term in everyday conversation as the only way to refer to women, not as a means of avoiding repetition:).
@Throne – We’re talking about women in general, not those you know. So why assume she’s not a woman and, therefore, may not deserve to be called one?
To me, it seems that sometimes, men and women (as Spinster pointed out) use the word female because they don’t want to use a more respectful term like woman, lady, etc. and they are putting effort into not using a disrespectful one. I rarely hear women refer to men as “males”.
In the end, I guess what I meant was that my friends and I don’t refer to each other or ourselves as “females” and when a woman calls another a “female” it usually has a negative connotation. You don’t hear a woman say “wow, what a beautiful female” as opposed to “wow, she’s a beautiful woman” but you will hear things like “see, that’s why I don’t hang with females” and I think there’s a reason for that.
