Not sure why there’s so much confusion over the use of woman vs. female. To my mind it’s
“Alice is a woman, she is a female friend”, not “Alice is a female, she is a woman friend”.
(But even if you want to say ‘woman friend’, you’d then have to ‘women friends’ for the plural)
What the fuck did I just read?
Words forming sentences.
Not well.

Are you not aware that the word ally has been in use far longer than the contemporary connotation to which you refer has been around?
Yeah, that’s not what misappropriation means. No one club gets to own a word in as common of use as ally. People have allys. Nations have allys. Various groups allys. You need to settle down and stop trying to own something nobody can own.

Again, I don’t care what team/community/orientation/gender/race or even species you align with, you don’t get to own the word. That’s not how things work in any language.

Yes you are. You’ve picked a really stupid hill to die on here.
but hurry up and die already, would you?
Needed to get your alt downvoted some? Jesus, man, go back to reddit till you grow up a little.
Then why are you acting like one group of people is the only ones who get to use the term “ally”?
hahahahaha! thanks for the laugh.
I thought ally was an intersectional term? That is, it applies to support for any people with any characteristics that might be discriminated against.
The purist, non-conformist, jaded subhuman terrorist
From flesh to steel and blood to blade I fight to exist

Here’s how that would go:
“Hey, Alice, what’s up, it’s Mike from the party!”
“Alice? What do you mean alice, she di…”
[Thinking] “shit, that’s a man’s voice. Must be her boyfriend.”
hangs upI mean it still results in someone the girl didn’t want to talk to not getting her number so I’d do it
