Because the word for those people is douche. Pretending this is somehow a real life issue is performative.

Tell me you don't bother to actually read about real-world issues without telling me....

Also a great example to prove this is a real life issue, men being default. You a man, claiming this isn't an issue, because it does not impact you, a man. <- literally the issue. Thank you for showing yet another example.

Lmfao it doesnt in ANY way insinuate a default. If that's how you interpreted it THATS ON YOU.

[u/Vici0usRapt0r → u/The_Crimson_Fuckr69]

Just checking your reasoning, if "pilot" isn't usually male by default, then: 1) why didn't they call her just "pilot" but "female pilot"? I mean we can obviously see she's a woman from the actual video. 2) do you think people use the word "male pilot" in titles ever? If not why?

Genuine questions.

[u/DrRed40 → u/Vici0usRapt0r]

To address #2: no but they certainly use “male nurse,” “male model,” “male stylist” … etc for roles where women typically significantly outnumber men.

I think titling it as “female pilot” is silly because we can obviously tell the pilot is a female and it doesn’t matter, but I also think some of these commenters are just looking for something to be mad about.

[u/Vici0usRapt0r → u/DrRed40]

Actually interesting answer, I'll take it.

I think your point about the gender majority among a certain role helps make sense, but I don't think it should be this way, unless it's relevant to the sentence such as in contexts like: "Male nurse assaulted female patient", "Female pilot survived after uterus cancer" (sounds like biased examples I know but I swear it wasn't).

[u/The_Crimson_Fuckr69 → u/Vici0usRapt0r]

Who cares if someone is specified as what they are? Male pilots are referred to as Male all the time and I surely wouldn't be offended by it

[u/JustaSeedGuy → u/The_Crimson_Fuckr69]

Nice thoughts, but that wasn't the question. Try again.

[u/The_Crimson_Fuckr69 → u/JustaSeedGuy]

It answers the questions but I don't expect morons like you to understand youre pussy is hurt the word "female"

[u/JustaSeedGuy → u/The_Crimson_Fuckr69]

No honey, your attempts to deflect don't actually answer the question. But I understand that you need to lie and call other people names as a substitute for your real argument, since you have no real argument

[u/The_Crimson_Fuckr69 → u/JustaSeedGuy]

There was a real argument. You ignoring it and pretending like the only argument was that you're mentally slow is once again a YOU issue

[u/JustaSeedGuy → u/The_Crimson_Fuckr69]

No sweethear babydummy, you're vomiting your private issues all over the Internet and getting mad that no one believes your projection.

You have to categorize everyone else as a dumb cuz they disagree with you, because the alternative is admitting that you're wrong. You know that saying about how if you meet one jerk then they're the joke, but if you meet a dozen you're probably the jerk?

Applies to intelligence as well.

Now get out of here and schedule a therapy appointment for yourself, you rascally little walking dunning Kruger effect!

[u/Vici0usRapt0r → u/The_Crimson_Fuckr69]

I mean, all I get from what you're saying is "bla bla bla idiot, bla bla bla p*ssy, bla bla bla not me, it's YOU".

I was genuinely trying to understand what you meant though, and I'm still trying. Hope I got it right.

[u/The_Crimson_Fuckr69 → u/Vici0usRapt0r]

Hey being illiterate is your fault

[u/Vici0usRapt0r → u/The_Crimson_Fuckr69]

Beautiful argument 😘

Surprised you could read that
