Sometimes it feels awkward. I'm getting used to it but for some reason it's unnatural. My women friends in real life also find it weird to say women, they also say females.

Do you also have 'man friends' in real life? Or do you say 'male friends'?

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago

I don't really say man either, I guess I would prefer to say male friends or guy friends.
