As a victim of rape, I cannot put into words how insulting this is

    calling the woman a female is a telltale sign its an incel.

    Maybe it's cultural, but "woman" can sound "old" to some people, and "girl" can sound "young".

    Some guys think its respectful to sidestep the whole issue and use an age neutral term, unaware of how it sounds.

    From my personal experience, those who aims to be respectful just say woman.

    from my personal experience

    Yes, exactly.

    I'm telling you as a matter of fact that I know people who felt awkward saying "woman" because of the age factor.

    These guys aren't incels by any means, they're just awkward and naive.

    For what it's worth I did tell them that "female" is not a good look, and they should use "women" instead.

    The point is not every guy who says "female" is dehumanising them.

    Back in the day (17th, 18th century) there were so abundant they just washed up on shore and were used as cheap food for the poor, servants and prisoners. Things changed when lobsters were transported inland with trains.

    It used to be considered such a ‘trash food’ fit only for the pathetically poor that there were actually servant employment contracts that limited the amount of lobster the Master of the House was allowed to feed his staff.

    Now, that’s largely independent of the taste, mind you. It was more that the Victorians considered any bottom-feeder seafood to be nigh unfit for eating.

    How can this be anything other than rage bait when the woman on the right is so pretty and the language is so gross and offensive?

    Sadly, people do believe this. These are the same assholes that go off on women for wearing bras and then expecting all tits to be naturally porn-star perky.

    Their real goal, under the ragebait, is to create and then normalize an ‘ideal woman’ template that’s nigh-unattainable and then punish every woman who doesn’t fit the mold. A demand, if you will, that every woman perform and dress up just for their eyes, with a side effect of disenfranchising and controlling women as the cherry on top.

    Then add in the fact that if whoever wrote this saw any woman out in public without makeup he would then complain about that.

    These people have nothing except their persecution complex.

    That post is like some precision engineered engagement bait. There are multiple axes of conflict that ensnare people in the mood to argue or share their opinions.

    Fucking dumbasses. And she's beautiful in both pics. But holy hell you have to be stupid to not know that the first one is wearing makeup. What next, someone shocked my lips aren't naturally dark red or black?

    I prefer the look on the right… I don't really need women to look like a Star Trek character

    Studio makeup is on a whole different level. If you saw an actor in stage makeup you would swear they are wearing a mask. It's designed to look good under harsh lighting. Btw Kate Mulgrew has a face full of freckles.

    Damn I hate it when I get seduced by women wearing makeup, it's the worst thing ever, I hope it doesn't happen this weekend.

    Is she not wearing makeup on both photos? The left is obvious because no one has a face like that, but on the right, that skin tone looks way too uniform to be anyone's natural skin.

    Men can't tell the difference between actual no-makeup and a no-makeup-look. Ask my husband. We've been working on his ability to tell the difference. 😂

    I can spot even a little concealer or foundation in person but phone cameras apply so many filters I would never make a guess based off a selfie. That could be makeup, could be portrait mode.

    This image is compressed to hell. It's impossible to tell. We have very little detail to go off of. It's, at minimum, little makeup. It could be zero makeup, and it could also be edited. There's really just not enough to go off of

    I don't think I've ever seen commentary like this offered up by a guy who actually stood even the slightest chance of actually having sex with whatever woman he's complaining about.

    Jeremy looks like the sort of guy who thinks the waitress is coming on to him because she smiled and called him "hon."

    I'd be disappointed if I was expecting the woman on the right and the one on the left showed up, but not enough to call it sexual assault, that's wild
