This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Why female is “in quotes”?

It's a derogatory when used as a noun.

Previous poster put it in quotes to show that OP probably used it that way.

Who says "females" in that context? Usually a very specific subset of people who have "never been in a relationship" and make it other people's problem. Like, regular person would just say "women", hence OP quoting

All the disgusting hyoo-mons in this thread sound like they'd allow their feemales to wear clothes.

Incels referring to women as females and likely a real chauvinistic attitude
