      I’ll probably get brutally assassinated for saying this, but typing “female friend” in this case is simpler than explaining that “girl friend” is not his girl friend.

      I know there are people that have made it a mission in life to be shit heels and have made the word female into something nasty but I still say we shouldn’t let them.

      Thanks for listening to my Ted talk and try not to hate me for having an opinion.

        Really? I’ve always thought female as an adjective is completely normal. Using it as a noun (to describe women) is what’s weird.
