        Yes, but 4chan anon could be talking to a "female"online and not assume her age

      Are you implying the anon was trying to date a child? Could be because it’s 4chan but even then the correct term is ‘girl’ and not female in case you don’t understand how language works.

        Idk man they are in 4chan, female is expected terminology. Anon could be a child. My exgf talked about spending a lot of time in 4chan before she was 18

              Then I don’t really understand what you meant. I said it could be about dating a girl and you said I guess the same thing then? Maybe it’s a language barrier thing.

                I’m a different person, but also “Are you implying the anon was trying to date a child? Could be because it’s 4chan”

                This is what I was replying to specifically, I would know as over a decade ago I was that 13 year old on 4chan

                  I was replying to someone who started to talk about children. I just said it could be. If you were a child on 4chan then that could be as well. But the topic here was that you should not use derogatory words to refer to people no matter their age.

                    I do think it’s stupid to word police to such an extent, it’s literally called feminism, not womanism or girlism. But I don’t really want to have that argument and have all of my views assumed.
