You know what, how about we just forget about classifying individuals based solely on the appearance of their genitalia and instead just call them all "people" and treat them all equally?

You're right, but to be fair, you could have chosen your words better. I mean, what about all the women without vaginas, did you ever think about their feelings? You really should have said "humanoids without a Y chromosome". No wait, that doesn't work in all cases either (eg those with Swyer syndrome or de la Chapelle syndrome).

According to the gentlemen, HazCat, at the bottom of this thread, I have stripped women of personhood just by referring to them by a different name.
Does one really have power over a woman's happiness and personhood just by calling them females among other things, or is this whole feminist "proper name" etiquette just another way of shaming people into submission?
I find the idea of women falling into horrible agony by me referring to them as females or humanoids as pathetic, if not amusing. Women really depend on me respecting them by their exact terms in order to be happy? I thought they wanted to have more power in society and independence in their lives?
Anyways, today's form of feminism is turning pretty silly.
