I always wondered why some nerds (affectionate) use the terms males/females. Maybe they're copying some science fiction book they read?

Up until like 7 years ago, the word lacked major misogynistic connotation. It used to be fairly common in certain subsects, including nerds, and it all but died in them. I wonder when “female” will become kosher again. This century is unlikely, given the Tate taint. The evolution of language is fascinating.
